Male fertility study for men with spinal cord injury
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study looks at fertility (the ability to father a child) in men who have a spinal cord injury. It compares them with healthy men to understand how spinal cord injury may affect fertility.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You must have a spinal cord injury (to be in the main group)
- If you are not in the spinal cord injury group, you must be a healthy man with no recent infertility issues

This study is looking for people with a spinal cord injury from a blunt force (not a penetrating injury like a gunshot or stab wound) to see if certain substances in the blood (called biomarkers) can help doctors understand the injury better and predict recovery. It involves an initial blood sample within 24 hours of the injury and follow-up assessments.
This study tests whether pelvic floor muscle exercises can improve bladder, bowel, and sexual function in people with a spinal cord injury. If you have ongoing symptoms in these areas and a stable health routine, this trial may help you learn ways to strengthen those muscles.
This study tests whether testosterone can help brain function in men with spinal cord injury and low testosterone. If you qualify, you would receive testosterone treatment and have your brain activity measured over about a month.
