info_outlineWelcome to Fertility & Sterility Roundtable, hosted by Dr. Emily Barnard and Dr. Ben Peipert! Each week, we will host a discussion with the authors of "Views and Reviews" and "Fertile Battle" articles published in a recent issue of Fertility & Sterility.
Today, we will be discussing the Views and Reviews from the May 2026 edition of Fertility and Sterility entitled “Male Infertility and Immune Function.”
This Views and Reviews brought together experts, some of whom we will be interviewing today, who evaluated and summarized the evidence on how the immune system plays a role in male fertility and infertility in general. We know that infertility is caused, at least in part, by a male component in about 50% of cases, and we are appreciative to our guests for joining us in discussion today. We encourage all of our listeners to read the full articles in the journal as we will not be able to cover all the content in this episode.
