Study of Relationship between Semen White Blood Cells and Male Infertility

Objective To study the relationship between semen white blood cells(WBC) and male infertility.Methods Semenpararneters,fructose contents,alpha-glucosidase and acid phosphatase activities were measured and analyzed in 64 infertile men.Results Semen WBC5/HP rate was 29.69% in 64 male infertility.When the patients were divided into subgroups according to seminal WBC counts,semen volume,sperm density,sperm mortality and a,b grade motile sperm concentration were observed to be lower in semen WBC5/HP group compared to be semen WBC≤5/HP group(P0.05),in addition,higher abnormal morphological sperm,increased semen viscosity rate and the UU infection rates were observed in semen WBC5/HP group(P0.05).Fructose contents and alpha-glucosidase activities were not difference between WBC≤5/HP group and WBC5/HP group.Activity of acid phosphatase was significantly reduced in WBC5/HP group as compared to theWBC≤5/HP group(P0.05).Conclusion These results suggest that WBC may have effect on semen analysis parameters.
