The pill and male infertility

In several press articles, there have been claims that the pill indirectly causes male infertility. [1] Whether it is true or not, it appears slightly controversial to the degree that the assertions should either be refuted or confirmed based on their scientific validity or consequent political relevance.

'pre-testicular' and 'post-testicular'?

Definitions of these would be really helpful. Thanks! --Tyranny Sue (talk) 01:18, 15 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Percentage

What percentage of all men are infertile? Can a reader get an answer to this simplest question from the article? The necessity of doing the math bothers. Jack who built the house (talk) 01:30, 16 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It affects approximately 7% of all men.

The source for the 7% prevalence did not determine the value, merely included it in background information. Given there is a very strong age dependency, and difficulty defining which partner is infertile in monogamous couples (virtually all study populations), an unqualified ballpark is in my view inappropriate. I'm between institutions at the moment so do not have good journal access and so cannot check what the actual value range or population dependence is.

Some other data

I forget where, but I read something involving the infertility affecting only younger men (teens to mid-thirties) and that men older than that but younger than elderly ones actually are more fertile than said younger men. I’ll try to find the work in a timely manner BlackAdvisor (talk) 03:20, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
