There are various reasons that can lead to male infertility, such as long-term infection of the reproductive tract leading to liquefaction and malignant transformation of semen, as well as functional disorders of prostate secretion. Therefore, genital infection leading to infertility is the main direct cause.
It is often caused by male genital infections, such as orchitis, urethritis, etc. The pathogens causing genital tract infection include gonococcus, tubercle bacillus, virus, mycoplasma, Chlamydia trachomatis, trichomonas and other non-specific pathogens, of which mycoplasma and chlamydia are the most common.

Tuberculosis of the reproductive system can inhibit spermatogenesis and transport, and even cause testicular atrophy due to orchitis.
