Medication1
Although bicalutamide does not bind to the ERs, it can increase estrogen levels secondarily to blockade of the AR when used as a monotherapy in males, and for this reason, the medication can indirectly activate the ERs to a degree and hence have some indirect estrogenic effects in men. (wikipedia.org)

History1
The initial step in the evaluation of an infertile male is to obtain a thorough medical and urologic history. (medscape.com)
Severe2
IVF-ICSI is a type of ART used to overcome severe oligospermia or azoospermia by injecting a single sperm into the cytoplasm of a mature egg. (medscape.com)
Background: This study evaluated whether microsurgical varico-celectomy performed in infertile men with severe oligozoospermia (SO) resulted in improved semen parameters or increased rates of spontaneous pregnancy (SP) and performed a cost-effectiveness analysis comparing intrauterine insemination (IUI), in vitro fertilization (IVF), and varicocelectomy. (bvsalud.org)
Abnormal1
An abnormal postcoital test result is observed in 10% of infertile couples. (medscape.com)
Varicocele1
Sperm parameters, presence of varicocele, and testicular volume were evaluated in our patients. (bvsalud.org)
These men present with no previous history of diseases affecting fertility and have normal findings on physical examination and endocrine, genetic and biochemical laboratory testing, although semen analysis may reveal pathological findings (see Section 11.3.2). (uroweb.org)
PATIENTS AND METHODS: We conducted a cross-sectional, descriptive, retrospective study of 100 infertile patients followed at the Histology-Embryology-Cytogenetics laboratory of UCAD in Dakar, during the year 2020. (bvsalud.org)
Concentration1
Infertile men may have deficiencies in sperm formation, concentration (eg, oligospermia [too few sperm], azoospermia [no sperm in the ejaculate]), or transportation. (medscape.com)
Prevalence of male1
There are marked geographic differences in the prevalence of male reproductive disorders. (nih.gov)
Couples2
An estimated 15% of couples meet this criterion and are considered infertile, with approximately 35% due to female factors alone, 30% due to male factors alone, 20% due to a combination of female and male factors, and 15% unexplained. (medscape.com)
For this reason, in all infertile couples the male should undergo medical evaluation by a urologist trained in male reproduction. (uroweb.org)
Reproductive4
Male reproductive health and environmental xenoestrogens. (nih.gov)
Male reproductive health has deteriorated in many countries during the last few decades. (nih.gov)
Exposure of the male fetus to supranormal levels of estrogens, such as diethlylstilbestrol, can result in the above-mentioned reproductive defects. (nih.gov)
The growing number of reports demonstrating that common environmental contaminants and natural factors possess estrogenic activity presents the working hypothesis that the adverse trends in male reproductive health may be, at least in part, associated with exposure to estrogenic or other hormonally active (e.g., antiandrogenic) environmental chemicals during fetal and childhood development. (nih.gov)
Spermatogenesis1
If conception fails despite spermatogenesis in a male or ovulation induction in a female, in vitro fertilization may be an option. (nih.gov)
Estrogen2
Several drugs including dopamine antagonists, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, tricyclic antidepressants, and high-dose estrogen therapy cause hyperprolactinemia and should be discontinued if possible in this situation. (medscape.com)
Although bicalutamide does not bind to the ERs, it can increase estrogen levels secondarily to blockade of the AR when used as a monotherapy in males, and for this reason, the medication can indirectly activate the ERs to a degree and hence have some indirect estrogenic effects in men.
