[Discussion on the treatment of male infertility from spleen and stomach based on intestinal flora].

Human reproduction is based on the physiological structures of men and women and affected and restricted by various physiological factors. Infertility is now receiving more and more attention and male infertility reportedly accounts for about half of the infertility cases and is becoming one of the serious problems affecting human reproduction and health. The normal intestinal microbiota flora is an important substance to maintain normal metabolism of the human body and closely related to its physiology and pathology. This paper discusses the correlation between the intestinal flora, spleen and stomach theory in TCM and male infertility, from the perspective of the gut flora and the TCM prescriptions for strengthening the spleen and stomach and regulating the imbalance of intestinal flora, aiming to provide some more ideas and theoretical evidence for the clinical studies and treatment of male infertility.
