The aim of this work was to report on a heavy drinker whose azoospermia was reversed after alcohol withdrawal. We also review the literature on links between alcohol consumption and azoospermia.
This study is a clinical case report and a literature review.
Two years after alcohol withdrawal, a child was born following assisted reproduction technique. Excessive alcohol consumption (i.e. more than 60 g a day) is strongly associated with azoospermia and this condition may be reversible after alcohol withdrawal.
Testicular biopsies should be countra-indicated for heavy drinkers, and in order to increase the chances of obtaining a pregnancy, alcohol abstinence should be encouraged in male with low-to-moderate alcohol intakes.
本研究旨在报告一例重度饮酒者在戒酒后代偿性恢复无精子症的病例。我们还回顾了饮酒与无精子症之间联系的相关文献。
本研究为临床病例报告及文献综述。
戒酒两年后，通过辅助生殖技术诞生了一名婴儿。过量饮酒（即每天超过60克）与无精子症密切相关，且这种情况在戒酒后可能是可逆的。
对于重度饮酒者，应禁止进行睾丸活检；为提高受孕几率，对于低至中度饮酒的男性，应鼓励其戒酒。
