Infertility is the inability to achieve a normal pregnancy. About one in seven couples in the United States is unable to conceive a child after trying regularly for one year. Some couples will have success in the second or third year of trying, but couples that cannot conceive after three years are very unlikely to ever succeed unless they seek medical assistance. Infertility in a couple may be caused by the male partner, the female partner or both.

Studies suggest the male partner alone is infertile in about 20% of cases and that both partners have fertility problems about 30% of the time. Therefore, the male partner plays a role in about half of all couples that have difficulty conceiving a child. In about 15% of cases, infertility tests are completely normal in both partners, despite the fact that the couple cannot conceive a child.

Integration of Chinese medicine and western medicine would be a good choice for this disease. When treating male infertility, Chinese doctors will take everything into consideration, including the following conditons.
1. Infections
2. Certain medicines
3. Low sperm count
4. Undescended testicles
5. An underlying medical problem
6. A blockage in a man’s reproductive system
7. Sperm that are abnormally shaped or that don't move correctly
8. Other factors that may affect fertility include tobacco smoking, excessive alcohol consumption and abuse of other illegal drugs, emotional stress, obesity and age.
