Does an increase in adipose tissue 'weight' affect male fertility? A systematic review and meta-analysis based on semen analysis performed using the WHO 2010 criteria

Daniele Santi et al.

Summary: Obesity has a negative impact on sex hormone metabolism, leading to reduced testosterone levels and potentially affecting male fertility. This study conducted a meta-analysis of observational studies and found that overweight and obese men had lower sperm count and motility compared to normal weight men. The results suggest that increased body weight is a risk factor for male infertility.

Impaired fertility in women and men with chronic kidney disease

Piotr Kuczera et al.

Summary: This review paper discusses impaired fertility in women and men with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Impaired fertility in both genders is caused by a combination of factors, including hormone imbalances, reproductive organ damage, and psychological factors. The prevalence of impaired fertility increases with worsening kidney function, with the highest prevalence observed in CKD stage 5 patients. Kidney transplantation can alleviate, but not fully reverse fertility impairment in CKD patients.

Reproductive axis ageing and fertility in men

Sarah Martins da Silva et al.

Summary: Compared to women, the impact of increasing age on reproductive function in men is not as significant, but changes still occur. These changes include alterations in testosterone production and bioavailability as well as spermatogenesis. As men age, their sexual function and erectile function decline, which may also be related to coronary artery disease. Although there is a decline in spermatogenesis, men have the potential for fertility throughout adulthood, but changes in sperm quality and function may have significant implications for offspring health.

Male adiposity, sperm parameters and reproductive hormones: An updated systematic review and collaborative meta-analysis

Albert Salas-Huetos et al.

Summary: This study found that overweight and/or obesity were negatively associated with semen quality parameters and certain reproductive hormones, while also positively associated with high estradiol concentrations. Meta-analysis showed that overweight and/or obesity categories were linked with lower sperm quality, whereas underweight category was associated with low sperm normal morphology. Maintaining a healthy body weight is important for improving sperm quality and male fertility.
