Male Symptoms

Some men experience physical symptoms that may indicate male infertility conditions and help the healthcare provider make a diagnosis, while others may show none.

A change in the size of a man's testes and gain or loss of body weight can be relevant. Reporting any infertility symptoms to your healthcare provider in a timely fashion can help him/her make a diagnosis and bring you and your partner one step closer to your goal.

Here you will find descriptions of symptoms that can be linked to male infertility. Some causes of infertility are idiopathic, meaning that a definitive cause cannot be found. Other symptoms have been categorized according to how they manifest themselves.

They are categorized into 2 groups:

  • Infections
  • Physical signs/symptoms (i.e. congenital, sexual, endocrine)
