Evaluation of serum level of Osteocalcin hormone in male infertility.

abstract：:Chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPPS) is a multifactorial problem affecting men of all ages and demographics. Currently, there is a relative dearth of epidemiological information on CPPS. It is clear that patients with CPPS have a dismal quality of life and many have benefited only minimally from ...
