Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) is crucial for male fertility and it exerts its effects via a gonad-specific receptor (FSHR). In the present study, the common G-29A, A919G, and A2039G polymorphisms in the FSHR gene were analysed in 150 (36 non-obstructive azoospermia and 114 individuals with oligozoospermia) patients and 208 normozoospermic men. The results showed that the FSHR polymorphisms were not...
