About this episode
Dr. Natalie Crawford gives an in-depth look at male fertility, a topic often overlooked in discussions of reproductive health. She begins by explaining the spermatogenesis process, detailing how sperm develop over approximately 72 days, and how this timeline impacts fertility assessments and treatment planning. Dr. Crawford also answers listener questions, addressing important topics such as low testosterone, leukocytospermia, and how lifestyle choices—from diet and weight to substances like nicotine and marijuana—can impact male fertility.
