“…It was found that the baseline NIH-CPSI quality of life impact scores in Group 3 were significantly lower than those in Group 1 and Group 2 (p < .001). There was no significant difference between the groups in terms of the NIH-CPSI quality of life impact scores at month 6 (p>.05); however, a significant difference was found (14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20)(21)(22) .000 Ã p 2 0.000 Ã 0.000 Ã 0.000 Ã Beginning-6 month p 3 0.000 Ã 0.000 Ã 0.000 Ã Beginning-12 month p 3 0.000 Ã 0.000 Ã 0.000 Ã 6.month-12 month p 3 0.000 Ã 0.000 Ã 0.000 Ã 1 One-way Anova test; 2 analysis of variance in recurrent measurements; 3 Bonferroni test; Ã p<.05.…”

The presence of white blood cells in semen has been associated with male infertility. Previous studies indicate that pyospermia occurs in conjunction with decreases in sperm motility, number of normal sperm forms, and penetration rates in the zona-free hamster egg sperm penetration assay. We have evaluated the relationship of seminal white blood cells and sperm function, as reflected in the zona-free hamster egg penetration assay, and have investigated the possible mode of action of the white cells. Egg penetration rates decreased when white blood cells from fertile or potentially fertile donors were added to their sperm suspensions prior to preincubation and at insemination in the in vitro assay. Zona-free hamster egg penetration assay results were also inhibited when the supernatant from white blood cells incubated in Biggers, Whitten, and Whittingham (BWW) medium overnight were introduced to sperm-oocyte suspensions at insemination. Conversely, egg penetration rates were enhanced in samples from hypofertile individuals when white blood cell concentrations in the semen or WBC/sperm ratios were reduced, either by physical removal or as a result of antibiotic therapy. The physical presence of leukocytes, and possibly, the extracellular release of lysosomal enzymes may be responsible for the inhibitory effects in vitro. Although the mechanism(s) by which white blood cells interfere with the fertilizing capacity of spermatozoa are not clear, it is quite obvious that their presence in the in vitro environment is undesirable and can mask an individual's actual fertilizing potential.
