Thyroid hormones influence metabolism and reproductive physiology. Both hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism may impair spermatogenesis and sexual function.
Hypothyroidism is associated with reduced libido, erectile dysfunction, and altered semen parameters. Hyperthyroidism may cause premature ejaculation and hormonal imbalance.
Diagnosis requires thyroid function testing (TSH, free T4, free T3). Correction of thyroid dysfunction typically restores erotic reproductive function.
Integration of endocrine evaluation into infertility assessment enhances diagnostic accuracy.
