It occurs when the male partner’s sperm is unable to fertilize the egg due to issues such as low sperm count, poor movement or abnormal shape. It contributes to nearly half of all infertility cases and can often be treated with the right medical approach.

Male infertility can result from a combination of medical, hormonal, genetic and lifestyle factors that affect sperm production, quality or delivery. Identifying the exact cause helps fertility specialists recommend the most suitable and effective treatment approach.

1. 1. Low sperm count
   2. Poor sperm motility
   3. Hormonal imbalance
   4. Poor sperm quality unresponsive to treatment
   5. Genetic conditions
   6. Lifestyle factors

Male infertility may not always show obvious signs, but certain physical or reproductive changes can indicate an underlying issue. These symptoms often suggest problems with sperm production, hormonal balance or reproductive function.

1. Difficulty conceiving after regular unprotected intercourse
2. Erectile or ejaculation problems
3. Testicular pain, swelling or discomfort
4. Reduced facial or body hair growth
5. Changes in sexual desire or performance

Diagnosing male infertility involves a combination of clinical evaluation and specialized testing to determine the root cause. These tests help the specialist understand sperm quality, hormonal levels and overall reproductive health.

1. 1. Semen analysis to evaluate sperm count, movement and shape
   2. Hormone tests to assess testosterone and related levels
   3. Scrotal ultrasound to detect structural issues
   4. Genetic testing if abnormalities are suspected
   5. Physical examination and medical history review
