Here are some ...: If the inflammation leads to cellular damage in seminiferous tubules, spermatogenesis will be impaired as confirmed in pathological examination from biopsy. And somehow, testosterone production tends to be disproportionally spared; so largely, testosterone secretion is "intact". You may say why? Remember: Behind what we know always hides a lot what we still don't know and is the ground to explore
