Comparison of Analysis of Sperm Parameters Between Fertile and Infertile Mals

Abstract

Background: Infertility has increased in recent years. About half of all infertility cases are due to male factors. Objectives: The present study aimed to diagnose infertile individuals by examining sperm volume, density, motility, count, pH, luteum hormone (LH), follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), percentage of sperm with abnormal morphology, and percentage of sperm DNA damage. Methods: This study was performed on semen samples of 96 individuals, of whom 45 were fertile and 51 were infertile. Sperm parameters were evaluated based on the World Health Organization (WHO) criteria among fertile and infertile individuals. Results: Volume, concentration, and motility were significantly lower in infertile individuals than in fertile individuals, and LH, FSH, and the percentage of sperm DNA damage were higher in infertile individuals than in fertile individuals. Conclusions: By examining the quality and analysis of semen in men, it is possible to identify infertile people and follow the necessary and appropriate treatment strategies.
