Is there a significance of histamine in the control of the human male sexual response?

abstract：:Epidermal growth factor concentrations and amounts per ejaculate were determined in 162 infertile men and in a control group of 50 pregnancy-proven fertile men. No differences were found between those groups. The group of infertile patients was divided into sub-groups according to their sperm density. EGF values in th...
