Could Sub Fertile Sperm Count Cause Constant Itchy Scrotum?
I have been to the doctors and been diagnosed with a sub fertile sperm count (less than 2 million) I have discussed many reasons as to why this may be the case, but am wondering whether having a constant itchy scrotum (last 10 years) could be anything to do with it?

Hello and welcome to HCM.
As an Urologist, let me assure you, semen and itchy scrotum aren't connected. Itchy scrotum is an external skin issue.Semen comes from inside.
The sperm count you've mentioned, is certainly very low.
If you can send your semen reports, blood hormone reports, and scrotal ultrasound scan, with medication being taken, i can give you an expert opinion on further treatment options.
