Pyospermia: background and controversies

12 Jan 2021

Abstract excerpt

Pyospermia (or leukocytospermia) is suspected based on the presence of >1 × 10 6 round cells/mL of ejaculate and diagnosed using peroxidase stain revealing >1 × 10 6 white blood cells/mL. The presence of white blood cells is a concern for overt infections or excessive inflammation, both of which have been postulated to negatively impact bulk semen parameters and fertilization capability. The threshold for...
