Yes. Male factors contribute to roughly half of all infertility. Assessing only one partner wastes time and money.
Age is the strongest single factor, followed by ovarian reserve, sperm quality and the underlying cause of infertility. We give an individual assessment at consultation rather than quoting headline averages.
