MALE FACTOR INFERTLITY In the United states approximately 15% of the population fall into the
category of being unable to conceive. In these couples, male and female
factors are equally accountable for the problem. Problems with sperm fall
under a number of categories.1) structural abnormalities: 2) Low sperm count:
3) Motility (the sperms ability to “swim”:4) Morphology (the shape and
maturity of the sperm cells):4) Clumping (sperm cells that clump together):5)
High white/red blood cell counts. From a Chinese perspective, the main causes of male infertility fall
under two broad categories: one is a deficiency of the Kidneys (usually
kidney Yang; sometimes kidney yin); the other is damp-heat in the pelvic
organs. [Kidney deficiency may also affect the liver and spleen and lead to
stasis of qi and blood. A study conducted by the College of Acupuncture &
Moxabustion at the Shanghai University of TCM, Shanghai, China, reported 35
cases of male infertility were treated only with low frequency electro
acupuncture. The results of the study showed improvement in activity and
quantity of sperm, semen quality and spermatogenic environment (semen
quantity increased obviously after treatment with significant decrease of
mucosity and liquefaction time) improved. Sex hormones were normalized as
follows: 33.5% improvement in FSH 35.3% in LH 57.1% in estrogen 65.1% in testosterone Herbal therapies and dietary
regulations also play a significant role in achieving functional results. For
