Abstract:Teratozoospermia is one of the common causes of male infertility. The etiology and pathogenesis of teratozoospermia are still uncertain, so there is still no clear treatment guideline. Professor Zhou Shaohu has been engaged in the research of male infertility for more than 30 years and has many valuable insights in treating teratozoospermia with Chinese medicine. Based on the theory of “yang transforming qi and yin shaping up body” and combination of disease differentiation and syndrome differentiation, he considers that the basic pathogenesis of this disease is kidney deficiency and blood stasis. Combining long-term clinical observation with modern lifestyle change of people, professor Zhou usually treats this disease with the method of invigorating kidney and filling essence, promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis. He formulated the Yishen Huoxue Prescription, which has a significant curative effect. This paper briefly describes professor Zhou′s experience in treating teratozoospermia, with a case attached at the end of the article.
