Astheno Teratozoospermia

Introduction

As briefly mentioned above, Astheno teratozoospermia is an abnormality related to the sperm’s shape and motility. In this condition, the shape and size of the sperms becomes abnormal along with low motility which makes them difficult to survive and contribute to fertilization. The sperms in this condition are unable to move properly and have distorted morphology like curled back head, round shaped head, symplast or elongated spermatids. All these factors make sperm movement very slow or nil due to which they cannot travel, directly affecting the fertility in males. For the sperms to be active and healthy, they should be in correct shape and size with normal count and motility, only then they can be a part of fertilization.

Signs and Symptoms

There is one and only marked sign and symptom of Astheno teratozoospermia, i.e., Infertility. Abnormally shaped and low motile sperms in a male decreases the chances of achieving pregnancy in the partner as the disability of the sperms to move prevents sperm to adhere on ovum and fertilize.

In this condition, the sperms when looked under a microscope appear to be larger, smaller or tapered head and tail is small or pyriform. All of these features are abnormal.

Causes

The exact cause behind the Astheno teratozoospermia is not known. However, there are many internal and external factors which are considered to play a role in its occurrence. Some of them are:

  • Varicocele
  • Diabetes mellitus
  • Problems in testes
  • Infection in seminal fluid
  • Injuries to the genitals
  • Inadequate or malnutrition
  • Smoking
  • Excessive indulgence in alcoholism or other drug abuse like marijuana or cocaine
  • Prolonged exposure to chemicals like pesticides
  • Radiotherapy and chemotherapy treatment for cancer
  • Fever on and off
  • Age exceeding 45 years in male increases the chances of having abnormal sperms
  • Prolonged heat exposure in hot tubs, automobiles or saunas
  • Infections like prostatitis
  • Testicular tumors
  • Developmental or structural defect of sperm or testis sometimes due to genetic causes
  • Hormonal issues like androgen resistance syndrome, hyperprolactinemia, etc.
  • Sexual dysfunction

Diagnosis

Astheno teratozoospermia can be diagnosed by semen analysis or spermiogram. This is the specific test for confirming its diagnosis, if your doctor is suspecting it. This test should be performed after 3-5 days or sexual abstinence (no sexual intercourse). According to WHO (World health organization), there is a certain criteria for healthy sperm morphology:

  • A normal sample must include at least 4% of sperms having normal morphology
  • Sample having less than 4% of sperms with normal morphology suggests severe teratozoospermia

Along with this, the microscopic study of sperms suggests the low motility of sperms,with an indication of Astheno teratozoospermia.

Treatment

Conventionally to treat Astheno Teratozoospermia the antiestrogens are given which have shown adverse effects in many cases. Along with it, injections of Intracytoplasmic sperm are also given which means injecting sperm into the egg directly. As after fertilization the abnormal morphology does not affect the further process of conception and growth of zygote.

However, these treatments cannot be successful enough in many of the cases and also are too expensive for everyone to afford it. In such cases, Ayurveda is known to work very well. It has been used to treat various cases of infertility in males and females, being it of any cause since ancient times. The natural herbs and herbal combinations that are potential to treat and manage the cases of infertility and help in conception are perfectly and purely being served by Planet Ayurveda.
