ClinConnect Summary
This clinical trial is focused on creating a special collection, called a biobank, of biological samples from men who are naturally fertile, meaning they have successfully fathered children before. Researchers want to gather and preserve these samples to help study male fertility and understand how it works. The trial is currently looking for participants who are men aged 18 and older and who have proven to be normospermic, which means their sperm count and quality are normal.
If you or someone you know fits these criteria, you may be eligible to participate. Participants will provide biological samples, and this might involve a simple procedure. Being part of this trial could contribute to important research that helps improve our understanding of male fertility. Please note that this study is not accepting men who have fertility issues or who are under 18 years old.
