What are the symptoms of male oligospermia?

Generally speaking, "weak sperm" refers to asthenospermia. Men with asthenospermia may experience symptoms such as lack of energy during sexual activity, abnormal semen, physical weakness, pain during ejaculation, and reduced fertility. If any discomfort occurs, it is recommended to seek timely medical attention and receive standardized treatment under a doctor's guidance. Specific manifestations are analyzed as follows:

1. Lack of Energy During Sexual Activity

Men with asthenospermia may feel weak and easily fatigued during sexual intercourse. They may also develop sexual dysfunctions such as decreased libido, erectile difficulties, premature ejaculation, or impotence.

2. Abnormal Semen

The semen of men with asthenospermia may be abnormally viscous and fail to liquefy after ejaculation. Semen volume may be excessive and cloudy, with a yellowish tint. Sperm motility is typically low, and sperm morphology may be abnormal, including head or tail deformities.

3. Physical Weakness

Patients may experience general debility, dizziness, body aches, and fatigue. A minority of patients may also develop neuropsychiatric symptoms such as palpitations and night sweats due to prolonged infertility.

4. Pain During Ejaculation

Asthenospermia may be associated with infections in the seminal vesicles, vas deferens, or other reproductive organs. If an infection is present, patients may experience pain during ejaculation. If inflammation spreads, the pain may extend to other parts of the reproductive tract.

5. Reduced Fertility

Asthenospermia reduces the likelihood of sperm successfully fertilizing an egg, leading to diminished fertility and is one of the primary causes of male infertility.

Men who suspect they have asthenospermia should seek prompt medical evaluation and professional treatment. With proper medical guidance and improvements in lifestyle, many patients can enhance their sperm quality and even achieve natural conception.
