This study tests a new medication called leflutrozole for men with a condition where no sperm is produced (azoospermia). The drug may help increase hormone levels that support sperm production, potentially improving fertility.
This study tests whether a dietary supplement can improve sperm health in overweight men with fertility issues. If you qualify, you would take the supplement for a period and your sperm quality would be monitored.
This trial tests a new non-hormonal male contraceptive pill called NLS-133. It is taken just before sex and could help give men more control over family planning.
This trial tests a new drug called Leflutrozole to see if it can improve testicular function in men with low testosterone and low sperm count. The goal is to help increase natural hormone levels and sperm production.
This study tests whether a herbal supplement can improve sperm health (count, movement, and shape) in men with fertility problems. You'll need to have low sperm counts and be in general good health, and you'll be asked to follow a routine that includes avoiding ejaculation before tests.
This study looks at how everyday chemicals called endocrine disruptors (found in some plastics and personal care products) might affect sperm health in men with low sperm counts. If you qualify, you may help researchers learn whether reducing exposure to these chemicals can improve fertility.
