This study was undertaken to evaluate conventional and some of the main bio‐functional spermatozoa parameters, serum gonadal hormones and didymo‐epididymal ultrasound features in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (DM1). DM1 affects an increasing number of men of reproductive age. Diabetes may affect male reproduction by acting on the hypothalamic–pituitary–testicular axis, causing sexual dysfunction or disrupting male accessory gland function. However, data on spermatozoa parameters and…

Evidence collected seems to suggest that andrological health in adolescence may be impaired by several factors, as varicocele, cryptorchidism, and childhood cancer, which might contribute to impair reproductive health, but more studies in adolescents are needed.

A significant rise in total sperm output in both IDDM and NIDDM neuropathic diabetic patients and a significant decrease in semen volume in both types of diabetic patients thus suggests some kind of Leydig cell hyperplasia, which in turn may stimulate spermatogenesis and atonia of the bladder and urethra, resulting in retrograde ejaculation.
