In this study, treatment with finasteride altered the expression patterns of antioxidant enzymes in the epididymis of rats, potentially affecting its protective function for spermatozoa.

This study found that a mild intramuscular dose of BOTOX increased spermatogenesis and improved sperm quality in ageing mice, suggesting potential benefits for managing male infertility.

A thorough initial check-up is essential before sperm banking to ensure the best chance of preserving good quality sperm.

This study found that COVID-19 infection disrupts spermatogenesis, alters testicular cell populations, and may impact male fertility by causing long-term changes in testicular function and reduced sperm quality, as observed even in patients who have recovered from the acute phase of the infection.

In this study, finasteride treatment for 56 days in adult rats led to sloughing of immature germinal cells and reduced sperm content in the epididymis, indicating its importance for maintaining spermatogenesis.

This study found that finasteride treatment in adult hamsters led to significant testicular alterations and reduced spermatogenesis compared to untreated controls.

This study found that in male rats, finasteride significantly decreased spermatogonia and primary spermatocytes numbers and increased Leydig cells, but did not affect overall testis histology or spermatogenesis.

This study updates guidelines for evaluating and managing male infertility, including revised testing recommendations for Y-chromosome microdeletions, use of pelvic MRI, and testicular sperm in nonazoospermic males.

This study reported that semen quality improved in three young men after discontinuing long-term finasteride use, although meiotic abnormalities persisted.

This study observed that adult offspring of sperm donation generally feel positive about their conception method and believe identifying information about donors should be accessible.

In this randomized study of male contraceptive regimens, adding finasteride did not significantly enhance spermatogenesis suppression compared to the control group.

This study reports a rare case of polyorchidism in a 96-year-old male cadaver, suggesting a new classification based on anatomical and histological findings to aid in accurate diagnosis.

This study found that stem cell transplantation effectively reduced acute inflammation-induced testicular damage, suggesting potential for cell-based therapies in addressing male infertility.

The researchers reported that both estrogen receptors ERα and ERβ are expressed in human testis, and identified two novel genes, Aven and Regucalcin, linked to estrogen and androgen regulation, which may be crucial for spermatogenesis.

Environmental factors and exposure to toxins may contribute to male infertility by affecting sperm and hormone function.

This review reports an increasing trend in sperm DNA fragmentation research over the past 20 years, with a focus on lifestyle, asthenozoospermia, and varicocele, and highlights the TUNEL technique as widely used.

This study found that both men and women in infertile couples perceive using donor sperm as more likely to cause stress, marital problems, and a diminished sense of joint parenthood compared to donor eggs.

This study demonstrated that an AR-EGFP transgene can restore AR function and fertility in Sertoli cell-specific AR knockout mice, highlighting its potential use in understanding androgen receptor functions.

This review discusses recent research on male infertility causes and treatments, emphasizing the need for further understanding of idiopathic sperm abnormalities and molecular factors to improve patient outcomes; it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that V-ATPase plays a role in the acidification of vas deferens fluid under the influence of testosterone in orchidectomized rats.

This article discusses the hypothalamus-pituitary-testis axis in androgen production and spermatogenesis but presents no new research findings.

This study found that paternal exposure to finasteride in male rats may impair fertility and affect androgen-sensitive spermatogenesis in their male offspring.

In this case report, treatment with antibiotics, finasteride, and prostate omentalization restored fertility in a 6-year-old German Shepherd with prostatitis and astenoteratozoospermia, avoiding surgical castration.

This review found an increasing trend in research on sperm DNA fragmentation over the past 20 years, especially focusing on lifestyle factors, asthenozoospermia, and varicocele, with the TUNEL technique as a predominant method.

The researchers reported that finasteride treatment in male rats may lead to changes in antioxidant enzyme activity in their offspring's epididymis, potentially affecting sperm maturation.

This study highlights the need for a comprehensive andrological assessment at diagnosis, including semen and hormonal analysis, to guide fertility preservation strategies, and found that post-orchidectomy semen samples showed improved DNA integrity for assisted reproductive technologies.

Male infertility and genitourinary birth defects are often linked to genetic issues.

This study reported significant improvements in sperm concentration in two cases of azoospermia and severe oligospermia after discontinuing finasteride 1 mg used for hair loss.
