Alcohol and male fertility (preliminary report).
A communication on three studies of alcohol abusers. In patients at an in-patient unit for alcohol abusers we found defective spermiograms in comparison to a control group and a return to normal in the course of 10 weeks of treatment. We determined the existence of an aethio-pathogenic (nosological) unit--alcohologenic reversible azoospermia.
