    1. Western medicine treatment

    Mainly adopt treatment methods targeting the cause. Those with genital infections should receive anti-infective treatment, and those with varicocele should undergo surgical treatment as soon as possible. Treatment can increase sperm energy, participate in the metabolic process of sperm, or increase the activity of certain enzymes in sperm or semen to enhance sperm motility and help sperm move. Such as nucleotides, zinc, vitamin A, vitamin E, etc.

    2. Traditional Chinese Medicine Treatment

    According to traditional Chinese medicine, the kidney is the foundation of innateness and is responsible for "storing essence". The key to the production and presence of sperm is kidney yin, while the key to sperm motility is kidney yang. If you are born with deficiencies, or are weak due to long-term illness, or overworked in the house, etc., it can lead to deficiency of yin and yang in the kidneys. Deficiency of kidney yang means that the essence cannot move, deficiency of kidney yin means that the essence cannot be produced, and deficiency of both yin and yang means lack of energy. Failure in the biochemistry and movement of sperm can lead to infertility; or internal dampness and heat, stasis in the sperm orifices, etc. can lead to obstruction of kidney yang, resulting in low sperm motility and infertility. Therefore, food should be given dialectically and medicated diet should be rational.

    Causes of asthenozoospermia

    1. Long-term abstinence

    Men who do not ejaculate for a long time can easily lead to high sperm density, more dead sperm, and poor sperm motility.

    2. Genital infection

    Genital infection can easily lead to changes in the composition of seminal plasma. Reductions in zinc, magnesium, citric acid, fructose, and increases in pH will affect sperm motility.

    3. Varicocele

    Due to blood circulation disorders in the testicles and epididymis, the local temperature rises and toxic substances accumulate, resulting in low sperm motility.

    4. Other factors

    Smoking, alcoholism, depression, certain drugs, and systemic diseases can all affect sperm motility and lead to asthenozoospermia.
