Male Reproductive Potential

Meaning

Male Reproductive Potential is the integrated physiological capacity of a male individual to successfully initiate and complete the biological process of reproduction, encompassing the robust production of viable, motile sperm and the necessary endocrine health to sustain sexual function. This potential is a complex clinical metric, evaluated by semen analysis parameters and the functional integrity of the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis. It serves as a crucial indicator in endocrinology and fertility assessment, reflecting the male’s overall hormonal and metabolic well-being.
