Male Fertility: Sperm Count Crisis

06 Jun 2023 03:35pm

SHAH ALAM - World Infertility Awareness Month is celebrated in June annually to increase awareness regarding the numerous infertility issues faced by couples across the globe.

Despite popular belief, women are not the only ones suffering from reproductive problems but also men where a study in 2022 shows over the last 50 years, sperm counts have dropped by more 50 per cent.

In conjunction with Father's Day, we spoke to TMC Fertility Consultant Urologist Dr Muhilan Parameswaran and Malaysian Society for Assisted Reproductive Technology (MSART) president Dr Navdeep Singh on infertility in men in an episode of the Wacana Podcast.
