Q.

Hi sir, please suggest me. Does a low blood count cause male infertility? Does it have an effect on sperm count? What is the procedure? Are there any natural remedies?

A.

Hi, Low hemoglobin levels in the blood caused by Iron deficiency sometimes impair sperm quality, testosterone production, and testis architecture which affects fertility. Mechanisms involved being Oxidative stress, Decreased enzymatic actions and others.

It is necessary to consult an Andrologist to evaluate the patient and find out where exactly the problem lies.
