Hi,

Low sperm count can be sue to

2. Infection - Sexually Transmitted Diseases (STD) or non-sexually transmitted diseases causing epididymitis, orchitis
3. Ejaculation problems – Drugs, retrograde ejaculation, lack of ejaculation due to diabetes, spinal injuries, and surgery of the bladder, prostate or urethra
4. Anti-sperm antibodies
5. Benign or malignant growth
6. Undecided testicles
7. Hormone imbalances
8. Celiac disease
9. Exposure to heavy metals or drugs, overheating of the scrotum
