[QUOTE="Nelson Vergel, post: 121528, member: 3"] [SIZE=26px][B]Effect of scrotal heating on sperm quality, seminal biochemical substances, and reproductive hormones in human fertile men.[/B][/SIZE] At present, male contraceptive methods are only vasectomy and condoms, so it is necessary to research on male contraceptive techniques. The aim of this study is to observe the effects of scrotal heating (SH) on semen parameters, seminal l-carnitine (LC), epidermal growth factor (EGF), macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF), reproductive hormones and sperm chromosome numbers of adult healthy men, and to provide the experimental data for male contraception. The scrotums of 30 healthy male volunteers were exposed to the condition of 40 to 43°C SH belt warming 40 minutes each day for successive 2 days per week.
