Relationship between Semen Parameters in Samples Obtained from Sub-fertile Patients

Seda Karabulut, Ilknur keskin and Yusuf sagıroglu

Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the possible relationship between semen parameters collected from sub-fertile patients, and to define the parameters correlated. The relationship between these parameters, if any, would help us understand the mechanisms involved in subfertility or infertility. Material and Methods: A total of 1404, who have admitted our infertility clinics due to failure of conception between February 2012 and October 2016, were included in the study. Semen parameters analyzed included sperm concentration (millions/ml), total motility rate (%), progressive motility rate (%) and normal sperm morphology rate (%). Results: Mean sperm concentration (millions/ml), mean total motility rate, mean progressive forward motility rate and mean normal sperm morphology rate were found to be 78.67 ± 81.39, 66.1% ± 19.85, 11.45% ± 13.55 and 2.3% ± 2.46, respectively. A statistically significant correlation was observed between all parameters (p<0.0001). Conclusion: As a conclusion, a strong correlation was observed between the sperm parameters in the semen samples of sub-fertile patients. This finding may help us understand the mechanisms that control these parameters.
