Abstract

Introduction:30-35% of total population in Jammu and Kashmir reportedly has infertility problem which can be related to many factors. Overweight and obesity is one such factor which have a negative effect on fertility. It is generally assumed that obese patients have higher fat content in semen samples and that higher BMI value alters the level of reproductive hormones.

Materials and methods: 150subjects (100 infertile as test and 50 fertile subjects as controls) were taken after taking proper consent. Sample was collected by the criteria laid down by WHO 2010.

Results:In this study, the sperm count was found as 56.57 ± 8.47 in fertile and 15.8 ± 2.85 in infertile subjects. The fructose levels for controls and test were found out to be 108.29±2.97 and 92.68±3.75. And the citric acid levels are 36.70 ±1.65 and 42.16±1.22 in control and test respectively.

Conclusion: In our study conducted in the population of Jammu and Kashmir, it has been found that increase BMI value has a significant relation with infertility.
