In this study we aimed to investigate the effect of obesity on semen parameters and hormone levels in infertile males. This was a prospective cross-sectional study designed to assess the influence of obesity on semen parameters and hormone levels in infertile men. 88 obese [Body mass index (BMI) ≥30 kg/m2] men and 169 non-obese (BMI [Med-Science 2016; 5(3.000): 780-4] |
