Evaluation of Semen Parameters in Healthy Iranian Men

In an experimental study conducted during 2018-2020, semen was collected from 30 healthy men aged 18-35 years, who were referred to Emam Reza Hospital, Birjand University of Medical Sciences (Birjand, Iran). In accordance with the WHO guidelines, all samples were considered normal. ¹⁴All participants were requested to abstain from ejaculation 2-3 days before sample collection. Semen with any abnormalities (sperm count and motility, morphology, pH, viscosity) were excluded from the experiment. The study was approved by the Ethics Committee of Shiraz University of Medical Sciences (IR.SUMS.REC.1396.S808).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
