💜 What are male infertility factors?
Although historically, it has been emphasised that female factors contribute to infertility, there is much evidence that shows how males can also impact fertility. Male factors account for 30% of all infertility cases in the UK.
Enhanced Fertility has collaborated with to share the causes of male infertility. Here are five listed below:
💨 Environmental Causes: Overexposure to certain elements, such as heat, toxins, and chemicals, can reduce s***m production or function.
🍻 Lifestyle: Factors such as excessive drug use, alcohol consumption, obesity and long-term stress can impact s***m production.
🧔♂️ S***m disorder/structural abnormalities:
S***m vitality (activity), morphology (shape), and motility (movement) velocity can all contribute to male infertility. Additionally, obstructions at any point of the reproductive tract prevent s***m from moving. This can be caused by inflammation, infections or congenital defects.
🧬 Hormonal disorders: Infertility can result from disorders of the testicles themselves or an abnormality affecting other hormonal systems, including the hypothalamus, pituitary, thyroid and adrenal glands.
🦠 Immunological disorders: Due to several reasons, including injury, surgery and infection, the body can attack s***m and decrease s***m production or inhibit s***m movement altogether.
