A member asked:
Can nerve damage make a man infertile?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possibly: Men that have had back surgery especially lowered in the spinal column in the area where the nerves control the reproductive area may develop subfertility. This surgery may compromise the ability to ejaculate and maintain erection and may even possibly affect sperm production.
