Résumé
It is suggested that body mass index (BMI) can affect male semen quality; however, the results remain controversial. In addition, most studies have focused on the effect of obesity on semen quality. Evidence on the relationship of underweight or waist-hip ratio (WHR) with semen quality is rare. This study aimed to assess the association of BMI and WHR with semen quality. Data, including BMI and WHR, was collected from 715.00 men who underwent a fertility evaluation. BMI (kg/m Spearman's correlation showed that BMI was weakly associated with sperm progressive motility (r = 0.076, BMI and WHR were significantly associated with semen parameters, while BMI was an independent risk factor for normal sperm progressive motility. Reproductive hormones, including FSH and testosterone, had a significant influence on sperm concentration and sperm morphology.

Background
It is suggested that body mass index (BMI) can affect male semen quality; however, the results remain controversial. In addition, most studies have focused on the effect of obesity on semen quality. Evidence on the relationship of underweight or waist-hip ratio (WHR) with semen quality is rare. This study aimed to assess the association of BMI and WHR with semen quality.
Methods
Data, including BMI and WHR, was collected from 715.00 men who underwent a fertility evaluation. BMI (kg/m
Results
Spearman's correlation showed that BMI was weakly associated with sperm progressive motility (r = 0.076,
Conclusion
BMI and WHR were significantly associated with semen parameters, while BMI was an independent risk factor for normal sperm progressive motility. Reproductive hormones, including FSH and testosterone, had a significant influence on sperm concentration and sperm morphology.
