This cross-sectional study showed that, in a cohort of primary infertile men with SDF ≥ 30%, SOD-based treatment was significantly effective in improving SDF compared to antioxidants without SOD. Approximately 80% of men treated with SOD+ achieved clinically meaningful improvement in SDF after three months of treatment. Sperm progressive motility and normal morphology also improved after SOD+ therapy but not after SOD-. These results suggest that SOD+ treatment could be considered an effective option for the management of idiopathic infertile men with elevated SDF.
