Abstract
Several, more or less successful, medical treatments have been proposed for idiopathic male infertility. We assessed the effect of high-dose FSH (150 IU) in patients with idiopathic oligospermia in comparison with patients given low doses. In the high-dose group, there was a significant rise in spermatozoid concentration (p < 0.0001), mobility (p < 0.0001) and morphology (p < 0.007).
