Male infertility is a reproductive health condition in which a man has difficulty contributing to pregnancy despite regular, unprotected intercourse for at least one year. It accounts for a significant proportion of infertility cases worldwide and may result from problems related to sperm production, sperm movement, or the delivery of sperm. Low sperm count, poor sperm motility, abnormal sperm shape, hormonal imbalances, genetic disorders, infections, varicocele, and blockages in the reproductive tract are among the common causes. Lifestyle factors such as obesity, smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, drug use, chronic stress, poor nutrition, and exposure to environmental toxins can further reduce fertility.

Certain medical conditions, medications, and previous surgeries may also affect reproductive function. Symptoms are often absent, although some men may experience reduced sexual function, hormonal changes, or testicular discomfort. Diagnosis typically involves semen analysis, blood tests for hormone levels, physical examination, genetic testing, and imaging studies when necessary.

Treatment depends on the underlying cause and may include lifestyle modifications, medications, hormone therapy, surgical correction of anatomical problems, or assisted reproductive techniques such as intrauterine insemination (IUI) and in vitro fertilization (IVF) with intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI). Early evaluation and timely treatment significantly improve the chances of successful conception and healthy parenthood.
