The diagnosis and treatment of male infertility.
Male factor infertility is a heterogeneous disorder, a factor that precludes the development of either a single laboratory test to predict sperm fertility potential or a single therapy to improve fertility. A better understanding of the pathophysiology of the disorder will ultimately lead to more clearly defined diagnostic categories and specific treatment regimens.
