[|Human|] Dear Dr.Sree Bhushan,I would like to enquire about the side effects of LASER on kidney stones removal. This is regarding my husband he got the LASER done when he was in 20s for kidney stones and now his sperm count,motility of the sperm and the sperm concentration is low and we have been trying to have a baby since 4 years, recently we came to know that his sperm count is low and the doctors are advising us to go for IFV.Do you think is that because of LASER his sperm count is reduced? Kindly clear our doubt.
[|AI|]  Good Day, and thank you for being with Chat Doctor ! Laser treatment for kidney stones have not been associated with changes in sperm quality. I believe it is not associated. Your husband should get a scrotal ultrasound with Doppler to rule out varicocele. 50% of infertile men with decreased sperm count and poor sperm quality has varicocele and 80% of the time sperm parameters improves with treatment. I hope I have succeeded in providing the information you were looking for. Please feel free to write back to me for any further clarifications at: http://www.ChatDoctor .com/doctors/ Chat Doctor.  Best wishes.
