Summary

Background :

Up to 15 percent of couples are infertile. In up to half of these couples, male infertility plays a role. Male infertility is due to low sperm production, abnormal sperm function or blockages that prevent the delivery of sperm. Illnesses, injuries, chronic health problems, lifestyle choices and other factors can play a role in causing male infertility.

Methodology :

It is an interventional trial that involved 45 participants with infertility (Oligospermia, Hypospermia, Asthenozoospermia and Necrozoospermia). All the participants underwent a semen analysis for his semen count, volume and motility for a sample taken by masturbation. Then I gave each one of the participants a small device. This device gives an electrical shock up to 5 milliamps. I told each one independently to use this device properly on his testis every day and come for follow up checking every month.

After the fourth months, I made the final checkup for everyone and records my data and make a comparison between (before and after) semen analysis.
