Abstract
Reproductive health is an important issue for humanity. In the context of the increasing incidence rate of male infertility, it is essential to find the factors that affect male reproductive health. Gastrointestinal health is closely related to reproductive health. Gastrointestinal hormones (GIH) and gut microbiota (GM), as important material foundations for gastrointestinal function, can promote or inhibit testicular reproductive function, including spermatogenesis, sperm maturation, androgen synthesis, and even broader male diseases such as sexual function, prostate cancer, etc. On the contrary, the functional health of the testes is also of great significance for the stability of gastrointestinal function. This review mainly discusses the important regulatory effects of GIH and GM on male reproductive function.
