All the reasons leading to male infertility can be roughly divided into several groups. In accordance with the cause that caused it, the type of infertility that was caused by this cause is also called.

The most popular reason for infertility is erectile dysfunction (impotence), which makes it impossible to have sexual intercourse. There are a lot of possible reasons for its occurrence - from diseases and injuries to psychological problems, and only a specialist doctor can find out in each case.

Secretory infertility occurs as a result of a decrease or complete cessation of the production of spermatozoa by the testicles, or a decrease in their mobility, structural disruption or other defects in sperm, leading to the impossibility of fertilization. The most common causes of its occurrence are one or another effect directly on the testicles. These can be injuries or a previous illness. The most common causes of this type of infertility are varicocele (varicose veins leading to the testicle) and testicular dropsy. Both of these diseases lead to a decrease in blood flow to the testicle, and, as a result, inhibition of its functions. Viral parotitis, popularly called mumps, also leads to the same symptoms. Also, a temporary effect can occur due to a constant violation of the thermal regime (overheating).

Male infertility, which occurs when it is impossible for sperm to pass the vas deferens, is called obstructive. It occurs mainly due to the transferred viral diseases of the genitourinary sphere - epididymitis (inflammation of the epididymis) and prostatitis. It is also possible to develop a similar type of infertility due to tuberculosis, syphilis, thermal or physical trauma of the testicles.
