Genetic Issues

Genetic issues can have a significant impact on male fertility. Conditions like Klinefelter syndrome, Y chromosome microdeletions, and cystic fibrosis gene mutations can affect sperm production, sperm motility, or the overall quality of sperm. Genetic abnormalities can lead to infertility, reduced sperm count, abnormal sperm shape or function, and increased risk of miscarriages. Genetic testing can help identify these issues and guide appropriate fertility treatments or family planning options.
