Today, we kick off a special two-part discussion on the AUA/ASRM guidelines on male infertility. Joining us is Dr. Peter Schlegel, the James J. Cole Professor of Urology at Weill Cornell Medicine. We delve into the latest advancements and insights in male infertility evaluation and management.
Dr. Schlegel sheds light on the collaborative effort between the American Urological Association and the American Society for Reproductive Medicine, bringing together experts from various disciplines, including reproductive medicine, endocrinology, and urology. This multidisciplinary approach ensures comprehensive care for couples and considers the broader aspects of reproductive medicine.
We explore the patient-centric perspective of the guidelines, with a focus on mental health and providing relevant information to patients.
Stay tuned as we delve into key areas emphasized in the guidelines, such as the role of the male in recurrent pregnancy loss and the importance of evaluating both partners simultaneously. We also explore advances in sperm DNA fragmentation testing and discuss lifestyle factors that may impact male fertility.
