While gynecologists primarily focus on the female reproductive system, they may have some knowledge and training in male infertility as well. However, in general, male infertility is usually treated by a urologist or a reproductive endocrinologist.
A urologist is a specialist in the male reproductive system and can diagnose and treat conditions such as low sperm count, abnormal sperm shape or motility, erectile dysfunction, and varicoceles. They may perform procedures such as a sperm analysis, testicular biopsy, or vasectomy reversal to improve male fertility.
A reproductive endocrinologist is a specialist in fertility and hormonal disorders, and they may be better equipped to diagnose and treat underlying hormonal imbalances that could be contributing to male infertility. They may also be involved in assisted reproductive technologies such as in vitro fertilization (IVF) or intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI).
If a male is experiencing infertility, it's important to seek the help of a specialist who can properly diagnose and treat the underlying condition to improve the chances of conceiving a child.
