男性不育是一种影响大约50%不育夫妇的疾病，其中大约30%的夫妇只有男性因素不育。有人猜测，男性军人可能有一个更大的终身患病率的不孕症相比，一般人群，但很少有科学出版物专注于男性因素不孕症在军事人口具体。这篇综述将讨论许多关于军队男性不育症的独特考虑，并强调未来的研究机会。军事/联邦卫生系统有可能在为男性因素不育症提供保健以及对男性因素不育症的病因和治疗进行临床调查方面发挥领导作用。
Male infertility is a condition that affects approximately 50% of infertile couples and about 30% of those couples have only male factor infertility identified. There has been speculation that male military service members may have an even greater lifetime prevalence of infertility as compared to the general population, but very few scientific publications focus on male factor infertility in the military population specifically. This review will discuss many of the unique considerations regarding male infertility in the military and highlight future opportunities for research. The military/federal health system has the potential to serve as a leader in both the delivery of health care for male factor infertility and in the clinical investigation into the etiologies of and treatments for male factor infertility.
