good morning. my uncle has been married for about seven years now and still have not gotting a child. They went for medical check up and he was told that he has low sperm count which every one at home toke to be as a result of infertility. Now his wife is about to live him which i on my own don't like. I want to know what causes low sperm count in man [infertility] and how in cat be cured.
Infertility can be caused by a number of things - trauma or damage to one or both of the testicles, an STD that went untreated, exposure to radiation, many many things.
it can also develop so you can have a man with an adequate sperm count father a child and then when child number 2 is desired and doesn't happen easily , you can end up working up the ouple for infertility and discover that the man has a low sperm count or that the motility or morphology of the sperm is a problem(meaning they don't swim well or they are somehow imperfect).
