Leukocytes in the spermogram

The presence of leukocytes in the spermogram can show both their normal number and some deviations in one direction or another.

According to the WHO( World Health Organization), the norm of leukocytes in the spermogram means the content of about one million leukocytes in one milliliter of ejaculate.

In the event that in the spermogram there is an increased content of leukocytes, then it will already be leukocytospermia. A similar condition can be observed with inflammatory diseases of the prostate or seminal vesicles.

Elevated white blood cells in the spermogram are a sign of a chronic or acute inflammatory process in various areas of the male pelvic floor. This process in itself can not affect the probability of natural conception in any way, but all other parameters of the sperm can be seriously affected or worsen.

A large number of leukocytes in the spermogram is possible with inflammation of the prostate gland( prostatitis).This disease, of course, requires treatment.

Treatment should be carried out in order to avoid intoxication, weakness and fatigue. When the body is overcooled, the prostatitis can become aggravated. There may be pain and rapid urination.

The greatest danger of prostatitis is a gradual decrease in potency.

The increase in white blood cells in the spermogram can indicate inflammatory processes in any other part of the urogenital system of a man:

• in testicles;
• in the vas deferens;
• bladder and so on.

If you notice any changes in the functioning of the genitals, then there is a need for a visit to a urologist. He will perform a complete examination of your reproductive system, identify shortcomings and prescribe appropriate treatment.

Because the spermogram shows a high level of white blood cells( an obvious sign of prostatitis), you should direct all your efforts to eliminate the inflammatory process in the prostate gland.

True, you must first obtain approval from your doctor.
