A member asked:
Can having a hernia in testical area affect a man's sperm count?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes,on one condition: If the vas deferens gets trapped in the hernia then the duct that carries live sperm will not be able to reach its' exit resulting in a low or non existent sperm analysis.
