Vitamin D levels and biomarkers of male fecundity: A study from the Danish National Birth Cohort
Abstract Background Vitamin D is metabolised throughout the male reproductive system, suggesting a direct regulatory role of vitamin D in male reproduction. Objectives To investigate the association between plasma vitamin D levels at sperm ejaculation and during spermatogenesis and biomarkers of male fecundity in young men.

The role of iron in normal and impaired testicular function
Abstract Iron plays a critical role in testicular physiology, impacting spermatogenesis, testosterone production, and overall testicular function. Iron homeostasis is maintained through systemic and cellular regulatory mechanisms, including hepcidin‐mediated systemic iron control and the iron‐responsive element/iron regulatory protein (IRE/IRP) system ...

Healthy Aging Men Do Not Suffer From Relevant Limitations of Their Reproductive Functions
Abstract Background While metabolic disorders are well‐established contributors to testosterone decline and erectile dysfunction (ED), little is known about the natural progression of reproductive parameters in healthy aging men. Objectives This study aimed to evaluate longitudinal changes in reproductive parameters and sought to determine the ...

ABSTRACT Background Low parental education is associated with poorer offspring health, but its influence on male fecundity remains unclear. Objective To study the association between parental educational attainment at birth and biomarkers of male fecundity in young men and to explore whether this association is mediated by maternal smoking in pregnancy
