A member asked:
Does chronic lyme disease cause male infertility?
4 doctors weighed in across 3 answers
Possibly but...: Chronic lyme is a complex illness that is reported to cause virtually any symptom, so yes, it could cause infertility, but those most ill with lyme have other conditions that could also be factors. Many with lyme have pyroluria, a metabolic imbalance creating severe zinc deficiency. Many have hormonal imbalances, other chronic infections &/or heavy metal toxicity. All these need to be addressed.

Many physicians do : Not believe that such an entity as chronic lyme disease exists in the way that others do.

Probably not: And besides most academic infectious diseases physicians feel that there really is not such entity as chronic lyme.
