The authors present the results of treatment in 6548 cases of male sterility. According to their findings 598 (9.1%) men were ineligible for treatment. The various kinds of therapy resulted in an improvement of semen quality in 51.8% of the cases, 57.0% of the cases being eligible for treatment. The best results were obtained in patients with oligozoospermia, asthenozoospermia and teratozoospermia. The percentage of pregnancies was much lower (8.5%) than the improvement of semen quality.

Pesticides can adversely affect reproduction by causing congenital abnormalities, fetal demise, and infertility. The reproductive toxicity of coragen, a modified ryanodine receptor-targeting insecticide with chlorantraniliprole concentrations of 20%, was examined in male rats. Twenty-one healthy male rats were randomly assigned to one of three groups: the control group, two orally administered with low (500 mg/kg) and high (1000 mg/kg) doses of coragen for 8 weeks.

Background: Infertility was often considered a female issue, but male infertility emerged significantly after the Covid-19 pandemic. Hence, assessments are crucial for planning policies on health care and family planning and reasons thereof post vaccinations.

Material And Methods: The present study was a case-control, dual-centers, prospective study with normal sperm parameters.

Intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) is a cornerstone in managing male infertility, especially in obstructive azoospermia (OA) and non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA), necessitating sperm retrieval via testicular sperm extraction (TESE) or microdissection TESE (mTESE). However, the varied post-sperm extraction processing methods pose uncertainty regarding optimal approaches. To address this, a systematic review following preferred reporting items for systematic review and meta-analysis protocols (PRISMA-P) guidelines was conducted, identifying 16 relevant studies.

Purpose: Approximately 10-20% of couples in Germany are unable to conceive. About 50% of this subfertility can be attributed to the male partner. Preclinical studies suggest that fasting could potentially influence central mechanisms of spermatogenesis.

This case report presents a 31-year-old male patient with primary infertility, a unilaterally undescended testicle, and a complete AZFc microdeletion. Despite failed attempts at testicular sperm extraction, the patient underwent successful microscopic testicular sperm extraction and subsequent viable sperm extraction, leading to successful fertilization through intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI). The report underscores the potential for successful ICSI in male infertility cases with complex genetic and reproductive issues, highlighting the importance of comprehensive genetic evaluation and individualized reproductive techniques in managing male infertility associated with undescended testicle and genetic anomalies.
