Currently, the therapy for male factor infertility focuses on microsurgery to correct varicoceles or obstruction of the male reproductive ductal system. Additionally, there has been a strong shift away from evaluating and treating the man and proceeding directly to expensive artificial reproductive technologies. Prior attempts at medical therapy for male factor infertility have included hormonal therapy (GnRH agonists and antagonists, gonadotropins, anti-estrogens, testosterone, and aromatase inhibitors), antioxidant therapy, antibiotics, corticosteroids, methylxanthines, vitamins, minerals and amino acids (zinc and arginine), and angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors.
