Significance of semen and related checks

1, semen volume
Normal reference values: each 2-6mL, an average of 3.5mL.
Clinical significance: reduces (81nL), found in prolonged abstinence or subsidiary gonad with hyperthyroidism

2, semen color
Normal color: just shoot the semen is white or slightly yellowish, after liquefaction is half white on its own.
Clinical significance, or fresh soy sauce, red, seen in seminal vesicle gland inflammation, prostatitis, inflammation of the reproductive system.

3, semen consistency
Semen is a semi fluid-like liquid, a certain viscosity, its own liquefaction; have a high or low viscous, shows poor sperm quality.
Clinical significance: high (30min not liquefied), found in infertility. Lower (dilute semen clearing), found in oligospermia and azoospermia-free.

4, sperm count
Normal reference value: 0.6 per cent/mL.
Clinical significance, generally less than 20 million sperm count/mL as oligospermia, sperm is not found in semen of azoospermia. Reduce the \' found in oligospermia and azoospermia, can lead to infertility. Azoospermia is not necessarily not pregnant \' but significant impact on pregnancy. Azoospermia is really two azoospermia and azoospermia. True azoospermia in congenital absence of testes, testes syndrome, sequelae of chronic poisoning, mumps Orchitis, gujiu Dysplasia, etc. Azoospermia in tuberculosis, filariasis, gonorrhea, epididymitis, urethral stricture, external genital deformity due to mechanical obstruction,, seminal vesiculitis and prostatitis, urethritis caused sperm in the urethra is damaged.

5, semen Ph
Normal reference values: pH value: 7.2-7.8.
Clinical significance: increase \' in subsidiary gonads or epididymis of acute infectious diseases. Reducing \' seen in chronic infectious diseases of the reproductive system function slacken, vas deferens, seminal vesicles, dead sperm disorders such as obstructive.

6, semen of pathogenic bacteria
Normal reference values: negative (no bacteria).
Clinical significance: positive, found in epididymitis, vesiculitis, prostatitis, urinary tract infections.

7, sperm activity.
Normal reference values: >70%, with sperm level movement.
Clinical significance of lower, found in male infertility.

8, semen red blood cells
Normal reference values: negative (no).
Significance: the appearance of large numbers, in tuberculosis of seminal vesicles, prostate cancer.

9, semen white blood cells
Normal reference values: < 5/HP.
Clinical significance: increase in tuberculosis of seminal vesiculitis and prostatitis, prostate, and so on.

10, semen fructose
Normal reference values: 9.11-l7.67mm0l/L.
[Clinical significance: reduces \' in seminal vesicle gland hypoplasia, seminal vesiculitis-induced infertility.

11, the number of dead sperm
Normal reference value: < 15%.
Clinical significance: increase in infertility, reproductive system infection.
