ACUPUNCTURE AND MALE INFERTILITY About male infertility
The clinical definition of male infertility is the presence of abnormal semen parameters in the male partner of a couple who have been unable to conceive after 1 year of unprotected intercourse (Dohle 2010). The World Health Organization defines male factor infertility as the presence of one or more abnormalities in the semen analysis, or the presence of inadequate sexual or ejaculatory functio...
متن کاملMale phenotype predicts insemination success in guppies.
Theory predicts that mate choice can lead to an increase in female fecundity if the secondary sexual traits used by females to assess male quality covary with the number of sperm transferred during copulation. Where females mate multiply, such a relationship between male attractiveness and ejaculate size may, additionally (or alternatively), serve to augment the effect of indirect selection by ...
متن کاملKlinefelter-like phenotype and primary infertility in a male with a paracentric Xq inversion.
Klinefelter syndrome is an abnormality of sexual development which is usually characterised by the chromosome complement 47,XXY. We present a case of a male patient with the phenotypic appearance of Klinefelter syndrome and primary infertility, who was found, on karyotype analysis, to have a hitherto undescribed inversion of the long arm of the X chromosome (46,Y,inv(X)(q12q25)). The underlying...
متن کاملSusceptibility of the male fitness phenotype to spontaneous mutation.
Adult reproductive success can account for a large fraction of male fitness, however, we know relatively little about the susceptibility of reproductive traits to mutation-accumulation (MA). Estimates of the mutational rate of decline for adult fitness and its components are controversial in Drosophila melanogaster, and post-copulatory performance has not been examined. We therefore separately ...
متن کاملOxidative stress & male infertility.
The male factor is considered a major contributory factor to infertility. Apart from the conventional causes for male infertility such as varicocoele, cryptorchidism, infections, obstructive lesions, cystic fibrosis, trauma, and tumours, a new and important cause has been identified: oxidative stress. Oxidative stress is a result of the imbalance between reactive oxygen species (ROS) and antiox...
