ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial, titled "Ejaculation Frequency and Semen Parameters," is studying how the frequency of ejaculation affects men's semen quality, which is important for fertility. The researchers want to find out if how often men ejaculate and the length of time they abstain from ejaculation before a semen test can impact the results. The study is taking place at the Reproductive Center of the First Hospital of Jilin University, where men between the ages of 22 and 45 with normal ejaculation function can participate.

To join the trial, men should be generally healthy and able to ejaculate normally. The study will involve a brief medical history, including details about their overall health and fertility. Participants can expect to provide semen samples after different periods of abstinence, which will help the researchers gather information about how ejaculation frequency may relate to semen quality. It's important to note that men with severe sperm issues or certain health conditions will not be eligible for this study. If you're looking to understand how ejaculation frequency affects fertility, this trial may offer valuable insights.
