Abnormalities in Semen Analysis among Male Partners of Infertile Couple
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 3
Abstract
Background: Male infertility is an important cause of infertility with a strong impact on psychology and physiology of the couple. Male factor as a cause of infertility is present in 20 – 50 % of cases, hence the importance of an integral evaluation of the male factor infertility. Objective: Our study aims to asses the seminal parameters of male partners of infertile couple. Materials & Methods: This retrospective study was conducted on male partners of 200 infertile couples who attended the clinic. Data regarding history, physical examination and seminal parameters were taken from the case records. Semen was collected by masturbation in all cases in to a clean, dry container. After liquefaction, basic analysis was done which included volume, density, Ph, sperm concentration, motility and morphology. Results: The incidence of male infertility in our series was found to be 39 %. Out of the 75 cases with abnormal semen parameters, 55 % had oligospermia. Conclusion: Male factor infertility is an important cause of infertility in our population. 41/75 cases belonged to 21 to 30 year age group. Azoospermia contributed to 55% of cases.
