Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To study the effect of male obesity on sperm parameters and erectile dysfunction.
DESIGN:Retrospective analysis.
SETTING:Referral fertility center.
PATIENT(S):Couples presenting for infertility treatment.
INTERVENTION(S):On presentation, all men reported their weight and height and filled out an intake form that includes questions regarding factors that affect male infertility, including presence of erectile dysfunction. Body mass index (BMI) was divided into three groups: normal (BMI <25 kg/m(2)), overweight (25 kg/m(2)
