: A varicocele is among the most often reported reasons for male infertility. Malfunctioning of testicles a potential consequence. Semen quality and postoperative spontaneous conception can both be enhanced by varicocelectomy.

Introduction: A varicocele is defined as an abnormal venous dilatation and/or tortuosity of the pampiniform plexus in the scrotum. Varicocele is the major reversible cause of male infertility. It is observed in 35%–40% of all men with primary infertility. Objectives:Our purposes were determination of varicocelectomy benefits, anthocyanin effects on varicocle and also varicocelectomy isn'...

Male infertility accounts for about 50% of infertility cases [1]. Anatomic, genetic, endocrinological, environmental, behavioral and nutritional imbalances are critical causes of male infertility [2-5]. Therapeutic drugs can also adversely affect male fertility by injuring testicular cells or instigate hormonal changes that lead to decreased semen quality (Figure 1) thereby compromising the pro...

PURPOSE The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship of seminal parameters with the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and the platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), which are inflammatory markers, in men with an abnormal semen analysis and men with normozoospermia. MATERIALS AND METHODS Fifty-seven men with abnormal semen analyses and 59 men with normozoospermia were included in thi...

introduction: to examine the effects of opium dependence and cigarette smoking on semen quality and sperm parameters, the semen quality of men who abuse opiates and/or smoke cigarettes was investigated in a retrospective study. methods: male partners of 1325 infertile couples attending the infertility clinic for intrauterine insemination (iui) procedure were divided into non-smoking non-opium (...

In recent years, investigators have noted a trend toward a declining proportion of male births in many industrialized nations. While men bear the sex-determining chromosome, the role of the female partner as it pertains to fertilization or miscarriage may also alter the gender ratio. We attempted to determine a man's secondary sex ratio (F1 generation) by directly examining the sex chromosomes ...

OBJECTIVE To investigate a kallikrein-related peptidase 2 (KLK2) single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in relation to male infertility because of its role in semen processing. We investigated the genetic association of the KLK2+255G>A genotype with male infertility. METHODS We genotyped the SNP site located in intron 1 (+255G>A, rs2664155) of KLK2 from 218 men with male infertility (cases) and...

BACKGROUND/AIM The question of whether body mass index (BMI) affects semen quality and male fertility is controversial. The purpose of this research was to determine whether there is a correlation between BMI and semen analysis parameters. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 617 male infertility patients were recruited and separated into 3 groups according to BMI values as follows: normal weight...

Background: The prevalence of infertility in the general population is 15% -20%,of this male factor responsible for 20%-40%. Semen analysis an indispensable diagnostic tool evaluation partner infertile couple.Every single couple out 10 search medical care because infertility. Men older than 40 years and Women 30 are at increased risk So objective present study was to see different factors sperm...

INTRODUCTION According to the world Health organization, approximately one third of the world` population older than 15 years are smokers. Evidences indicate that both in men and in women, cigarette smoking affects reproductive health more than the consumption of caffeine or alcohol in comparable doses. The mechanisms according to which tobacco affects spermatozoa are poorly understood. Some of...
