Sperm production involves a delicate harmony between the testes which is the main sperm production site, the brain (hypothalamus), and the pituitary gland. Hormones in the brain trigger sperm production in the testes. Theses sperms are usually ejaculated on sexual stimulation via the reproductive system. Sperm related disorders usually include issues related to quality and quantity of the sperm. Quality related issues usually revolve around the sperm morphology and motility. Quantity related issues are generally sperm count disorders such as Azoospermia – Lack of sperm and Oligospermia – Low Sperm Count. “Azoospermia” is a Greek (Unani) word meaning “no live sperm” (a = no, zoo = life, sperma = sperm). “Oligospermia” is also a Greek (Unani) word meaning “few sperms” (oligo = few, sperma = sperm).
Most common male sexual disorders include premature ejaculation, erectile dysfunction, and libido disorders. Premature ejaculation is lack of ejaculatory control. Erectile dysfunction, commonly referred to as impotence, is the inability of the body to develop and maintain full penile erection. Libido disorders refer to sexual desire issues. Generally most patients with libido related issues have a lack of desire complaint but in some cases it is the opposite.
