Male infertility is a significant global health issue, contributing to a substantial proportion of infertility cases worldwide. It is defined by the inability to achieve pregnancy after an extended period of regular, unprotected intercourse and often presents with complex medical and emotional implications.
The etiology of male infertility includes impaired spermatogenesis, hormonal imbalance, genetic abnormalities, infection, erotic anatomical obstruction, and environmental exposure. Lifestyle factors such as obesity, smoking, and chronic stress further exacerbate reproductive dysfunction.
Andrology provides structured diagnostic algorithms and individualized treatment strategies to address these challenges, emphasizing both medical management and preventive intervention.
