Low Sperm Count Treatment in Hyderabad​

Lifestyle Changes

• Maintain a balanced diet of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats.
• Engage in regular moderate exercise like walking, swimming, or cycling to improve overall health and sperm quality.
• Limit alcohol consumption and avoid smoking and recreational drugs.
• Practice stress-reducing techniques such as mindfulness or meditation to manage chronic stress, which can affect hormone levels and sperm production.
• Avoid exposure to environmental toxins such as pesticides and heavy metals, which can harm sperm production.
• Wear loose-fitting clothing and avoid hot environments to prevent elevated scrotal temperatures.
• Get adequate sleep each night, aiming for 7-8 hours, as poor sleep can negatively impact hormone levels and sperm health.
• Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water to maintain sperm concentration and overall health.
• Maintain regular sexual activity to prevent the build-up of old or damaged sperm.

Medical Male Infertility Treatments

• Surgery: In cases where anatomical abnormalities, such as varicoceles (enlarged veins within the scrotum), obstruct sperm production or flow, surgical correction may be recommended to enhance fertility.
• Antibiotics: If a low sperm count is attributed to an underlying infection, such as epididymitis or sexually transmitted diseases, antibiotics are prescribed to eradicate the infection and potentially improve sperm count.
• Hormone Treatments and Medications: Hormonal imbalances, such as low testosterone levels or elevated levels of estrogen, can negatively impact sperm production. Hormone therapy or medications may be administered to restore hormonal balance and stimulate sperm production.

Assisted Reproductive Techniques (ART)

• • In Vitro Fertilisation (IVF): IVF in low sperm count involves fertilising eggs with sperm in a laboratory setting, followed by implanting the resulting embryos into the uterus. IVF can be an effective male infertility treatment option for couples.
  • Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI): ICSI is a specialised form of IVF where a single sperm is injected directly into an egg to facilitate fertilisation. This low sperm count treatment is particularly beneficial for couples dealing with severe male factor infertility.
  • Sperm Retrieval Techniques: In cases where sperm production is extremely low or absent in ejaculate (azoospermia), surgical sperm retrieval methods such as testicular sperm extraction (TESE) or percutaneous epididymal sperm aspiration (PESA) may be employed to obtain viable sperm for use in ART procedures.
  • Intrauterine Insemination (IUI): IUI in low sperm count involves the direct insertion of prepared sperm into a woman’s uterus to facilitate conception.
