Studies say yes: Studies show a correlation between certain HPV genotype infection in men and decreased sperm motility and abnormal sperm morphology. Prior studies have shown that sperm from infected men can deliver HPV genome to the egg (oocyte), and that the oocyte then can actively produce HPV proteins.
