Abstract

Relevance: Male infertility is a multifactorial disorder that occurs in about 50% of infertile couples. One of the reasons of infertility may be the increased exposure to toxic elements.

Purpose: to study the interaction of cadmium and zinc content in male sperm according to spermogram results.

Keywords: male infertility; zinc; cadmium; spermogram
