Is antibiotic treatment effective for male infertility caused by ureaplasma urealyticum?

Ureaplasma urealyticum(UU infection), a kind of mycoplasma infection, is a common sexually transmitted disease. When infected, it is likely to induce a variety of genitourinary system diseases if it is not treated timely. Generally, the infection can cause male infertility.

 

Why does ureaplasma urealyticum cause male infertility?

 

Commonly, after ureaplasma infects the sperm, it will result in poor sperm motility. What’s more, ureaplasma infection adsorbed on the sperm surface can increase sperm deformity rate, resulting in infertility. According to clinical observations, among ureaplasma urealyticum infected infertile patients, sperm deformity rate can sometimes be as high as 80%. After infecting seminal vesicles and testicles, UU destroys the spermatogenic cells. The testis seminiferous tubules have a large number of spermatogenic cells. When the ureaplasma enters seminiferous tubules through the urethra, prostate and other parts, it will destroy the spermatogenic cells and decrease the sperm quality as well as quantity, thus leading to male infertility.  

 

Commonly, antibiotics are widely used to treat male infertility infected by UU. Dr. Lee says that patients tend to choose norfloxacin, levofloxacin, sparfloxacin, trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, tetracycline and minocycline to get a cure when suffering from the disease. The treatment principle is to diminish inflammation and kill bacteria. Generally, if patients take these kinds of antibiotics continuously, the effect can quickly appear. 

 

However, the inherent antibiotics resistance problems also become a hazardous factor in the treatment. On one hand, after the treatment, ureaplasma urealyticum is prone to occur repeatedly. On the other hand, each antibiotic has side effects. It is possible for them to damage the liver and kidneys. Once a course of treatment with a med is finished, the pathogen is resistant to it and become stronger. If the infection on a man can’t be cured within one to two shots, antibiotics are no longer suggested for him. So antibiotic treatment is ineffective for male infertility caused by UU.

 

For stubborn ureaplasma urealyticum infection, Wuhan herbalist Dr. Lee will introduce the natural and effective treatment. Herbal remedy is strongly recommended for the best alternatives. Diuretic and anti-inflammatory pill, developed by Dr. Lee Xiaoping, is helpful to clear heat and promote blood circulation so as to remove blood stasis, inducing diuresis for treating strangurtia method. In general, male infertility caused by ureaplasma urealyticum will disappear after 3 months of treatment and the disease can be completely cured in about 4 months. In addition, the herbal pill is completely made of herbs. Therefore, it is much safer than antibiotics treatment because it has no side effect, natural and effective, without any drug resistance to patients.
