Abstract in brief

  • The study explores how male attitudes towards masturbation may affect the early diagnosis and treatment of infertility, especially in developing countries, by evaluating comfort levels and their impact on semen sample collection and fertility outcomes.
  • Results show that 59% of men were comfortable masturbating to produce semen samples, but those uncomfortable were more likely to report sexual problems and longer times trying to conceive, although semen quality was not linked to comfort levels.
  • The findings suggest that improving men's comfort with masturbation could help prevent delays in infertility investigations, emphasizing the importance of counseling to support male patients in fertility treatments.
