Abstract
This review article examines the impact of the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus on the urinary system, as well as on mens health. Data on aspects of pathogenesis and features of the course of a new coronavirus infection are presented. Possible risk factors for contracting a new coronavirus infection associated with an abundance of angiotensin-converting enzyme-2 (ACE2) receptors in the kidneys and urinary tract, to which SARS-CoV-2 has an affinity, are considered. The article provides an extensive range of studies that provide convincing evidence for the presence of changes in the spermogram of patients who have undergone COVID-19. Works demonstrating gender differences in the incidence of COVID-19 and concomitant diseases are presented. The literature review considers both direct and indirect factors (oxidative stress, cytokine storm, decreased libido), through which coronavirus infection negatively affects male sexual health.
