PY - 2021 T2 - Essentials of Men’s Health AB - Infertility affects 1 in 6 couples, and a male factor is partially or entirely responsible in at least 50% of cases.1,2 Historically, the issue of male infertility has not been as openly or prominently acknowledged in public discourse as female infertility, a disparity that may contribute to delays in workup and diagnosis of the male partner relative to the female. Meanwhile, male infertility may be growing more prevalent; there is evidence that sperm counts in many parts of the world are declining.3 It is important for clinicians to understand the different forms of male infertility and how to facilitate appropriate and timely workup for their patients.
