Effect of letrozole on spermogram parameters and hormonal profile in infertile men: A clinical trial study

Objective. There is no reliable treatment for men with idiopathic infertility, but the relationship between severe sperm production and the ratio of estrogen to testosterone levels has been shown. Aromatase is an enzyme that plays an important role in converting testosterone to estradiol and androst...

There is no reliable treatment for men with idiopathic infertility, but the relationship between severe sperm production and the ratio of estrogen to testosterone levels has been shown. Aromatase is an enzyme that plays an important role in converting testosterone to estradiol and androstenedione to estrogen. Aromatase inhibitors can increase testosterone and androgen production without increasing the amount of estrogen in circulation. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of aromatase inhibitor letrozole on the male infertility.Peivandi SepidehJafarpour HamedAbbaspour MinaEbadi AghdasSciendoarticlemale infertilityaromatase inhibitortestosteroneestradiolletrozoleDiseases of the endocrine glands.
