Pathophysiological Effects of Alcohol and Tobacco Consumption on Semen Parameters of Men Attending a Fertility Clinic in West Africa
: Background: Alcohol and tobacco consumption are prevalent global habits. There is existing evidence linking these habits to male infertility, although the impact they have on male fertility and reproductive outcomes are yet to be exhaustively investigated. Aim: This study aimed to study the pathophysiological effects of alcohol and tobacco consumption on semen parameters of men attending a fertility clinic in West Africa. Materials and Methods: Semen samples were collected from 196 men who attend Medlink Clinic, Monrovia, Liberia and parameters including sperm volume, count, motility
