Comparing the anti-inflammatory effects of corticotherapy and non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs in infertile patients with infectious aetiology.

Abstract:

:To compare the anti-inflammatory effectiveness of corticotherapy and nonsteroid anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID), we examined 126 infertile men with infectious aetiology. Seventy-seven patients were on corticotherapy and antibiotherapy (thirty-eight patients on high-dose and thirty-nine patients on low-dose corticotherapy). Forty-nine patients had antibiotherapy and NSAID. According to our results in both the high- and low-dose groups sperm motility significantly improved, but in the high dose group more side effects were reported. In order to overcome the effects of infections on male infertility, we prefer corticotherapy instead of NSAID because it is more effective than NSAID.
