Male infertility and its treatment: a review of over 4700 patients treated for male related infertility.
Changes in semen parameters are presented for 4708 patients treated for infertility. The largest group comprised patients with oligoasthenozoospermia of various grades (57.7%). Improvement in the seminal state was noted in 70.3%. The percentage of achieved normospermia increased proportionally to the initial semen state. Pregnancy rate also increased proportionally to the initial seminal state. Among the patients' wives 20.4% conceived: 28.2% of these pregnancies had occurred after having achieved normospermia, while in 71.8% the seminal states were still below the accepted normal values.
