Hi, I have been married since one n half years.My age is 32 and my husband s age is 38, his semen analysis shows severe oligoasthenospermia and he has cyst on his left scortum. He was suggested clomiphene citrate for one month, do you think that would help.We are trying for our first issue.Please suggest the best recourse to this problem. Thanks, Anupam
HelloThanks for query. As per your statement semen analysis of your husband has revealed him to have Oligoasthenospermia meaning there by that his sperm count and percentage of active motile sperms is low as per WHO standards and accepted range to effect in to pregnancy. Truly speaking there are no medications that can increase sperm count and sperm motility. Clomiphene that he has been prescribed has not been proven by any scientific data to increase these semen parameters. Following general measure will help him to increase sperm count and improve sperm motility to certain extent. 1) Practice regular exercise for 45 minutes followed by meditation for 1/2 an hour in the morning. 2) Take high protein diet rich in vegetables and fruits and vitamin A, C,D, E.and Zinc 3)Take anti oxidants like Almonds 5-6 everyday4) Avoid alcohol and smoking. You may consult qualified Infertility Specialist to explore the possibility of pregnancy with the help of assisted reproductive techniques like IVF or CSI. Chat Doctor.
