Folic acid not responsible for decreased sperm count

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear, I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
Folic acid deficiency do not causes cryptozoospermia or azoospermia.
Folic acid deficiency generally causes anemia and defective fetal formation in pregnant women.
I would suggest you to consult a urologist for proper examination, investigation and treatment of cryptozoospermia.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
