Methods A total of 40 males with hemospermia were enrolled in this study. These males were divided into 3 groups according to their fertile status: 18 cases were patients who visited the infertility clinic (group A), 8 had fertility (group B), and 14 did not know their fertile status (group C). Semen samples were collected and ASA levels were detected by the direct immunobead test (D-IBT). Leukocytes in semen were assessed by the peroxi- dase assay. Results None of these males with hemospermia were found to display significant levels of ASA in the 3 groups. The number of cases who had increased levels of leukocytes in the semen samples of groups A, B and C were 15 (83.3%), 6 (75.0%) and 12 (85.7%), respectively. Conclusion Hemospermia is not associated with the production of ASA. It is worth noting that the leukocyte levels are increased in semen of males with hemospermia.展开更多

Sperm motility, count, and morphology were determined according to the World Health Organization Laboratory Manual (2010).Results Of the 133 ejaculates studied, the largest volume was 10.8 ml. Most samples with hyperspermia had normal conventional sperm parameters. No differences were found on sperm motility and abnormal morphology rate between groups A and B (P〉 0. 05). In addition, no differences were also found on incidences of low motility, low sperm count, high abnormal morphology, and white blood cell (WBC) positivity between groups A and B (P〉0. 05). However, sperm count in group B was significantly lower than that in group A (P〈0.05). Ejaculates in group C had no WBC positivity. Conclusion Hyperspermia could have multiple forms for sperm parameters including good or poor status. Increasing seminal volume could not influence sperm parameters except for sperm count.展开更多
