Abstract

This paper was aimed to study of the sperm quality and assess the possible relationship between the spermogram parameters and the plasma total testosterone concentration in the local guys in the Nukus city (Uzbekistan). Methods. 302 medical profiles, which included data from the analysis of ejaculate and total testosterone plasma level in apparently local healthy subjects in the Aral Sea ecological disaster were analyzed. According to the World Health Organization guidelines, study participants into «group A» and «group B» (spermogram parameters less and more than the 25 th centile respectively) were divided. Total testosterone plasma concentration in subjects from these groups was compared. The proportion of included patients of both groups also was calculated. Outcomes. The proportion and total testosterone level of patients included in «group A» was lower than the proportion of study participants in «group B». The results of the study exposed the problem of fertility disorders in men living in this South Aral Sea region. Disruption of testosterone function is probably a consequence of the antiandrogenic effect of environmental pollutants. The data obtained can be useful in the complex monitoring of the state of men’s health among residents of environmentally problematic regions.
