Abstract in brief

  • Endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) such as bisphenol A, phthalates, and pesticides can negatively affect male reproductive health, including sperm production and testicular function.
  • Research shows that EDCs may cause various health issues like failure of spermatogenesis, developmental problems, testicular cancer, and long-term metabolic effects, but findings can be inconsistent across studies.
  • Although some studies suggest a link between chemical exposure levels and sperm health, the exact biological mechanisms of how EDCs impact human male fertility are not yet fully understood.
