What are sperm disorders?

Sperm disorders refer to abnormalities or issues with sperm that can affect fertility. These include azoospermia, characterised by the absence of sperm in the ejaculate, oligospermia, denoting a low sperm count below the normal range, asthenospermia, reflecting poor sperm motility hindering effective fertilisation, and teratospermia, indicating abnormal sperm morphology that may impede fertilisation. Various factors, including hormonal imbalances, genetic abnormalities, infections, lifestyle choices, or certain medical conditions, can cause sperm disorders.
