Clinical andrology--still a major problem in the treatment of infertility.
This paper highlights the need for formal training in andrology amongst those clinicians who are today managing the problem of infertility in the male. As all infertility now appears to be treated mainly by gynaecologists who have often had no teaching in the subject of andrology, suggestions are made as to how this situation can be improved and rectified. Specific training is needed for those gynaecologists involved in the management of male infertility and it is urged that training courses in clinical andrology are set up for this purpose.
