The study variables were: macroscopic and microscopic characteristics, semen motility kinetic parameters, and testicular characteristics. A total of 42 seminal samples were evaluated, the results were analyzed with descriptive statistics, cluster analysis, correlation and linear regression with the STATGRAPHICS Centurión XV Version 15.2.06 ® program.
