Obesity negatively impacts male fertility through three main mechanisms: increased oxidative stress, hormonal imbalance and hypogonadism, and accumulation of endocrine disruptors. Weight loss through diet and exercise has been shown to improve semen quality and total sperm count. Medications that target hormonal issues like aromatase inhibitors can also help increase sperm count and function. While bariatric surgery results are mixed, assisted reproduction techniques may be needed for severely obese men to conceive.
