“…In conventional sperm-washing procedures, the HPV infection persisted, but in later studies, heparinase III in sperm washing completely removed HPV DNA from the semen, and the sperm quality was not degraded. 126 To lower the chances of HPV transmission before ART, new, standardized seminal cleaning methods should be introduced. Apart from this, HPV can be transferred to women through sexual activity, and it may lead to a lower ongoing pregnancy rate and spontaneous abortion.…”

“…Some of the sperm washing technique includes simple washing, swim‐up method, density gradient centrifugation, magnetically activated cell sorting, and microfluidic sperm sorting. Among these techniques used to eliminate HPV‐DNA from the surface of the sperm, the swim‐up technique using Heparinase‐III has proved successful so far 73 …”

It is believed that human papilloma virus infection (HPV), which is caused by the DNA virus, is the most prominent factor contributing to sexually transmitted disease (STD) in the world, with males having a prevalence rate of 3.5%-45% while that women are 2%-44%. Infertility is a rising problem on a global basis, affecting anywhere from 10% to 30% of couples who have reached reproductive age. This study aims to investigate the existing research on HPV, its connection to male infertility, and how it could be a helpful tool for medical professionals managing HPV in the context of reproductive health care. Infection with HPV has been identified as a risk factor for several spontaneous abortions; however, there is a lack of evidence on how HPV influences individuals undergoing assisted reproductive technology (ART) in terms of live births. The significance of the immune response to HPVinfected male reproductive system cells and its effect on embryos, as well as the oxidative stress generated by high-risk HPV DNA damage and genomic instability, is discussed in this review. Further, the association between male individuals infected with HPV and asthenozoospermia should provide a compelling case for vaccinating young people against HPV.
