Spermatogenesis seems to be affected by SARS-CoV-2 infection, but the impact tends to reverse within 3-4 months. It is still unclear why male fertility is affected by SARS-CoV-2 infection, and it might be the result of several different components. Clinicians should consider recent SARS-CoV-2 infection as a possible reason for the low semen quality of patients' semen samples, and might therefore need to collect new samples after 4 months before further treatment.
