Real Help, Real Hope—Right Here in the City
Conversations around male fertility aren’t always easy. But they’re important. If you or someone you care about has been told they have a low sperm count, take a breath. It’s not the end of the road. In fact, with today’s medical advances, it’s often the beginning of a new plan, and there are plenty of options that work.
At Shree Srinivasa Uro Care, Dr. K. S. Shiva Kumar, a trusted urologist in Bangalore, offers discreet, personalized care for men facing fertility challenges. Whether you’ve just received your diagnosis or have been searching for answers for a while, here’s what you need to know about low sperm count treatment in Bangalore.
What Is Low Sperm Count?
Medically known as oligospermia, low sperm count means the semen you ejaculate during orgasm contains fewer sperm than normal. A healthy sperm count is generally considered to be at least 15 million sperm per milliliter of semen.
While a lower count can make conception more difficult, it doesn't mean it's impossible. Many men with low sperm counts successfully become fathers, with the right guidance, evaluation, and treatment.
Why It Happens
Understanding the root cause of low sperm count is crucial for choosing the right treatment. Several contributing factors may include:
- - Hormonal Imbalances: Low testosterone or pituitary hormone dysfunction can affect sperm production.
- - Varicocele: Enlarged veins in the scrotum can hinder sperm quality.
- - Lifestyle Habits: Smoking, excessive alcohol, obesity, or sedentary routines can reduce sperm count.
- - Heat Exposure: Frequent use of saunas, laptops on the lap, or tight clothing may impair production.
- - Toxins & Environmental Exposure: Chemicals, pesticides, and radiation can damage sperm.
- - Medications & Health Conditions: Certain drugs and untreated infections also impact fertility.
- - Stress & Poor Sleep: Mental and physical fatigue can interfere with reproductive hormones.
At Shree Srinivasa Uro Care, Dr. Shiva Kumar doesn’t just look at test results. He investigates each case in detail to understand the whole picture, offering solutions that address both symptoms and causes.
5 Proven Treatments for Low Sperm Count in Bangalore
1. Lifestyle & Nutritional Counseling
Don’t underestimate the power of clean living. Sometimes, the right habits are all it takes to improve sperm health. Dr. Shiva Kumar guides patients on:
- - Nutrient-rich, sperm-friendly diets (rich in zinc, folate, and antioxidants)
- - Quitting smoking and limiting alcohol
- - Managing weight and improving sleep hygiene
- - Avoiding exposure to chemicals or heat sources
These foundational shifts are often the first line of treatment and can yield dramatic improvements in sperm concentration and motility.
2. Hormonal & Medical Management
In cases where hormonal imbalance is identified, Dr. Shiva Kumar may recommend:
- - Hormone therapy to restore balance (e.g., treating low testosterone or correcting thyroid dysfunction)
- - Antibiotics, if infections like STIs are contributing factors
- - Medication adjustments if current prescriptions are affecting sperm production
What sets Shree Srinivasa Uro Care apart is the tailored dosing, close monitoring, and evidence-backed protocols, designed for both safety and success.
3. Surgical Solutions (Including Varicocele Repair)
Varicocele is one of the most common reversible causes of male infertility. A quick, minimally invasive surgical correction can improve sperm quality, sometimes within just a few months.
Dr. Shiva Kumar performs these surgeries with precision, ensuring minimal discomfort and maximum recovery. The procedures are performed in a sterile, patient-friendly setting with full post-op support.
4. Assisted Reproductive Techniques (ART)
When natural conception proves difficult, assisted reproductive methods can be life-changing:
- - IUI (Intrauterine Insemination): Concentrated healthy sperm is introduced directly into the uterus.
- - IVF (In Vitro Fertilization): Egg and sperm are combined in a lab and implanted.
- - ICSI (Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection): A single healthy sperm is injected into the egg, often effective even with extremely low counts.
Dr. Shiva Kumar collaborates with top fertility centers in Bangalore to ensure smooth coordination, accurate timing, and holistic support through the ART process.
5. Psychological & Emotional Support
Male fertility issues can affect confidence, relationships, and mental health. Dr. Shiva Kumar creates a safe, non-judgmental space for men to express concerns, ask questions, and process their journey.
Confidentiality is guaranteed. And compassion? That’s just part of the care plan.

Frequently Asked Questions

2. How is low sperm count diagnosed?
The main diagnostic test is a semen analysis, which evaluates sperm count, motility (movement), and morphology (shape). Additional tests might include hormone profiling, scrotal ultrasound, or genetic testing.

Absolutely. Reducing alcohol, quitting smoking, improving diet, managing stress, and staying active have been clinically proven to enhance sperm parameters. Dr. Shiva Kumar customizes lifestyle plans to suit your needs.
