A member asked:
My bmi is 35.1 so could this result in weaker sperm? can my bmi also cause a lower sperm count in my ejaculation?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
LOW TESTOSTERONE : Obesity with increased deposition of adipose tissue, tends to increase production of estrogen and decrease TESTOSTERONE . THE Adipose tissue also absorbs insulin and increases risk of diabetes. I would suggest a second urology opinion. Recheck labs Especially TFTS/TESTOSERONE level. Recheck testicular ultrasound. Consider empiric trial of viagra/Levitra/cialis. Also gluten free diet/wg loss.
