摘要

Oligo-astheno-teratozoospermia (OAT) which perplexes doctors and patients due to its complicated etiology,atypical symptoms and poor clinical efficacy,is a general term for the three pathological states of abnormal semen.OAT is the main factor of male infertility.It is also a hot and difficult point in present studies.Empiric drug is the most popular treatment of this disease in the modern medicine.Chinese medicine (CM) is one of the main methods for the treatment of this disease,and it has certain clinical effect.The author believes that the use of modern medical technology to make the diagnosis as clear as possible is the key to treat OAT.The combination of syndrome and disease differentiation is the main mode in the treatment of OAT.Microscopic syndrome differentiation and macroscopic evidence embodies the basic principle of "Si Wai Chuai Nei" and broadens the perspective of CM syndrome differentiation.Classification and treatment are basic methods for the treatment of OAT.The treatment should not be limited to the Shen (Kidney),instead it should focus on the whole body condition.At different stages,the treatment should also pay attention to strengthening the Pi (Spleen),nourishing the Gan (Liver) and promoting blood circulation.Complementing Chinese and Western medicine,and highlighting the characteristics and advantages of CM treatment,have a great guiding value for the treatment of OAT.
