Novel Technologies to Check Male Fertility Status
with Dr. Jamin Brahmbhatt

July 14th, 2017. 1PM EST

LISTEN

Male factor infertility accounts for 50% of total cases of troubled conception. Unfortunately, male infertility is not as promptly reported as female infertility which is tracked by Society for Assisted Reproductive Technology database. One key reason for under-reporting of male infertility is lesser availability of means of tracking it. When it comes to fertility testing, where women have quite a few over the counter products, men have very few options. Curetalks male fertility advocates and panelists Kristen Darcy, Sara Naab, and Jonathan Boldt are talking to Dr. Jamin Brahmbhatt to learn about new options available for men and also discuss novel advancements in techniques to check male fertility status.
