Using Chinese Herbs to Improve Semen

Men who suffer from ejaculatory issues are typically diagnosed with one of three types of azoospermia. Some men are diagnosed with obstructive azoospermia. Obstructive azoospermia is the diagnosed is when the body creates sperm in the testicles but some type of obstruction prevents the sperm from mixing with the rest of the ejaculatory fluids. When it isn't an obstruction preventing the sperm from properly combining with the rest of the fluids during ejaculation the condition is called spermatogenisis, or non-obstructive azoospermia. When the manifestation of cystic fibrosis is involved doctors call the azoospermia, congenital azoospermia. All three types of azoospremia can wreck havoc on a man's fertility, making it extremely difficult for him to father a child.

Many men would just assume avoid taking prescription dugs to help deal with their azoospremia, for these men there are a variety of Chinese herbs that may help raise their sperm count.

Chinese herbs that men might want to consider in their quest to improve their sperm count and overall fertility are Astragalus and Polygonum. There have been many cases of men who have lazy sperm, poor sperm motility, dramatically improving after taking Astragalus. Astragalus is also credited for increasing sperm's survival rate; the longer the sperm live after ejaculation the grater the odds of getting a fertilized egg. People who have taken Polygonum to improve fertility will notice that their sperm count has increased. The combination of Polygonum and Astragalus should lead to more sperm that are extremely mobile and live long lives.

If you decide to use Chinese herbs to help with azoospermia you should do so with some caution. There is a chance you could be allergic to the herb.

Although you are still free to take Chinese herbs to help with your azoospermia, if the low sperm count is a result of an obstruction, you should go to a doctor right away for more aggressive treatment.
