*1 out of 12 couples have subfertility.

*Male-related factors account for 40 percent of subfertility. Female-related factors account for another 40 percent and a combination of male- and female-related factors account for about 20 percent.

*About 90% of all subfertility can be traced to specific causes that can be treated.

Typical causes of male subfertility

*Sperm production problems

*Blockages inrepparttar sperm's delivery system

*Injuries torepparttar 114557 testicles

*Low or high hormone production

*Anatomical problems

*Varicocele (varicose veins aroundrepparttar 114558 testicle)

*Past illnesses/ infections/ various diseases

*Certain medications

Sperm quality

Sperm quality is a contributing factor for 40 percent of couples experiencing infertility. There are five main factors that contribute to sperm quality:

*Motility: The ability to move in an active fashion. In healthy sperm, typically more than 50% are active with over

25% moving forcefully in one direction. Motility is what enables a sperm to travel uprepparttar 114559 cervical canal, intorepparttar 114560 uterus andrepparttar 114561 fallopian tubes and, finally, penetraterepparttar 114562 egg.

*Speed: Progressive motility. In a healthy male, greater than 25% of sperm will exhibit progressive motility. It is thought that these arerepparttar 114563 sperm withrepparttar 114564 best chance of successfully fertilizing an egg.

*Count: The number of sperm inrepparttar 114565 fluid that is ejaculated (semen). There are over 40 million sperm in a normal ejaculate. A total count below 40 million may indicate decreased fertility.

*Concentration: A measure ofrepparttar 114566 number of sperm cells in a milliliter of semen. Normal concentration is at least 20 million sperm cells per milliliter of semen.

*Morphology: The shape and size ofrepparttar 114567 sperm. A healthy sperm cell will have a shape similar to a tadpole. The sperm's oval head containsrepparttar 114568 genetic material,repparttar 114569 center provides energy andrepparttar 114570 tail propelsrepparttar 114571 sperm forward.

Usingrepparttar 114572 strict criteria put forth byrepparttar 114573 World Health Organization (1999), studies show lower pregnancy rates with less than 15% normal forms. Furthermore, experts believe that abnormally shaped sperm cannot fertilize an egg.

Motility, speed and morphology appear to berepparttar 114574 most important factors to assessrepparttar 114575 fertilizing capability of sperm. Despite a low sperm count, many men with high-quality (viable and highly mobile) sperm may still be fertile.

By combining acupuncture, herbal medicine and supplements we have been able to effectively enhance and improverepparttar 114576 quality of

sperm. Not only dorepparttar 114577 count, morphology and motility improve but sperm fragmentation is often successfully treated.

Another excellent application ofrepparttar 114578 Berkley Center's protocol is varicocelectomy recovery. One ofrepparttar 114579 causes of lack of improvement in sperm quality and count after a varicocelectomy is due to a lack of blood flow torepparttar 114580 testicles. The proper application of acupuncture, herbal medicine and supplements has been shown to successfully enhance blood flow torepparttar 114581 testicles and facilitate healing and significant improvement after varicocelectomy.
