Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • change in sperm motility

    spermatozoa motility will be evaluated through microscopical evalutation

    spermatozoa motility will be analyzed after 3 months of treatment

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • change in sperm morphology

    spermatozoa morphology will be analyzed at the enrollment and after 3 months of treatmentanalyzed

  • change in sperm vitality

    spermatozoa vitality will be analyzed after 3 months of treatment

  • change in sperm count

    spermatozoa count will be 3 months of treatment

  • change in seminal fluid viscosity

    semen Hyper-viscosity will be analyzed after 3 months of treatment

Study Arms (1)
