A low sperm count is also called oligospermia (ol-ih-go-SPUR-me-uh). A complete absence of sperm is called azoospermia.

Having a low sperm count decreases the odds that one of your sperm will fertilize your partner's egg, resulting in pregnancy.

For some of us, the Federal Government's announcement regarding the gradual easing of the lockdown was greeted with a sigh of relief at the thought of getting their lives back to some semblance of normalcy. For others, quite understandably, concerns were raised as to the consistent rise in the number of reported COVID-19 cases around the country and that lifting the lockdown could result in devastating consequences for the states affected. However, for us at Bridge Clinic, we believe that "When life throws us lemons, we'll make the yummiest lemonade!".
