QUESTION

When sperm concentration is less in the semen sample the condition is called as?

OPTIONS

(A) Hypospermia
(B) Oligozoospermia
(C) Asthenozoospermia
(D) Teratozoospermia

ANSWER

(B) Oligozoospermia

EXPLANATION

Oligozoospermia means an abnormally low sperm concentration or sperm count. Hypospermia describes reduced semen volume, which is a different measurement. Asthenozoospermia refers to poor sperm motility, and teratozoospermia indicates an increased proportion of morphologically abnormal sperm. A sample can have more than one abnormality, but reduced concentration specifically corresponds to oligozoospermia.
