Can Male Infertility affect pregnancy/ conception?

Infertility affects both men and women, with various causes including age, lifestyle factors, and some underlying medical conditions.

Top 4 Facts About Male Infertility

Let us discuss some facts related to Male infertility today. For a man to help his partner get pregnant, a few things are really important:

1. A man must produce healthy sperm. To begin with there should be the formation of the male reproductive organs during puberty phase. At least one of his testicles must be functioning correctly, and the body must produce testosterone and other hormones to initiate and maintain sperm production.
2. Sperm has to be carried into the semen.  Once sperms are produced in the testicles, a few delicate tubes transport them to let them mix with semen, which are then ejaculated out of the penis.
3. There needs to be enough sperm in the semen. If the number of sperm in your semen (sperm count) is low, it decreases the chances that one of your sperm will fertilize your partner's egg.

A low sperm count is fewer than 15 million sperm per milliliter of semen or fewer than 39 million per ejaculate.

   4. Sperm must be functional and able to move. If the movement or function of your sperm is not normal, the sperm may not be able to reach and          fertilize your partner's egg.

Remember, if any of these steps is disrupted, it can affect a man's fertility.

Infertility is a treatable condition. If you and your partner are struggling to conceive, consult a doctor, explore treatment options, and increase your chances of having a baby.
