Summary
Male infertility is a significant global health issue, accounting for nearly 50% of all infertility cases in couples. It is a complex and multifactorial condition, involving genetic, epigenetic, environmental, hormonal, and immunological components. Over the past decades, advances in reproductive medicine have greatly improved our understanding of spermatogenesis, sperm function, and the molecular mechanisms underlying male infertility. However, a large proportion of cases remain idiopathic, highlighting the urgent need for deeper investigations into novel biomarkers, diagnostic tools, and therapeutic strategies. This Special Issue aims to address these knowledge gaps and foster the dissemination of cutting-edge research in the field of male reproductive health.
