Male Fertility

Does male infertility matter as much as female infertility?

Yes. Male factors contribute to about 40–50% of infertility cases.

How is male fertility tested?

A semen analysis is the first step, sometimes followed by hormone blood tests or DNA testing.

What treatments exist for male infertility?

Depending on the cause: medication, surgery (e.g., varicocele repair), or assisted reproduction like ICSI, which only needs a single healthy sperm.

Does age affect male fertility?

Yes. Sperm DNA quality decreases with age, which can increase infertility or miscarriage risk.
