abstract：:Assessment of sperm DNA damage has been suggested as a negative predictor of fertility potential. Multiple pathological factors acting at both the intra-testicular and post-testicular levels may contribute to sperm DNA damage. The relative contribution of each of these factors in an individual with high DNA damage (>3...
