To study the relationship between occupation, health, and semen quality in a cohort of men attempting to conceive. Observational prospective cohort Sixteen Michigan/Texas counties A total of 501 couples discontinuing contraception were followed for 1 year while trying to conceive; 473 men (94%) provided one semen sample, and 80% provided a second sample. None. Semen data obtained through at home semen collection with next day analysis/quantification. In all, complete data were available for 456 men with a mean age of 31.8 years. Work related heavy exertion was consistently associated lower semen concentration and total sperm count. 13% of men who reported heavy exertion displayed oligospermia, compared to 6% who did not report workplace exertion. Shift work, night work, vibration, noise, heat, and prolonged sitting were not associated with semen quality. Men with high blood pressure had significantly lower strict morphology scores compared to normotensive men (17% vs. 21%). In contrast, hyperlipidemia, diabetes, and composite of total comorbidities were not associated with semen quality. The number of medications a man was taking as a proxy of health status was associated with semen quality. There was a negative association between number of medications and sperm count (pTrend <0.05). A negative relationship between occupational exertion, hypertension, and the number of medications with semen quality was identified. As these are potentially modifiable factors, further research should determine if treatment or cessation may improve male fecundity.
