Asthenozoospermic causes for infertile males in Thi-Qar City
Keywords:
asthenozoospermic, infertile males, primary infertility, Thi-Qar, varicoceleAbstract
This is a study that aim to investigate the most common cause of asthenospermia in Thi-qar province. The results of the study clarified that the most common cause of asthenospermia in Thi-Qar province is varicocele the most affected occupations are the bakers and the bulk of cases was primary infertility and the most affected age group is 15-35. The results of this study showed that the primary infertility (60%) was more than secondary infertility (40%) as it is obvious from table 4. However, in males with primary infertility, chromosomal and genetic causes play an important role in the existence of primary more than secondary infertility.
