Abstract

Objectıve: To reveal the effect of smoking on semen parameters.Study Desıgn: Two hundred and ninety six infertile males were included in this retrospective study. Triage was made as nonsmokers, light smokers and heavy smokers. Semen quality parameters were the main outcome measures. Result: Rapidly progressing sperm ratio of the heavy smokers group was greater than that of the light smokers group (p<0.05). Morphologic evaluation results better results for the nonsmokers than the heavy smokers in terms of tail anomalies and percent of coiled tails (p<0.05). Descriptive characteristic and all other semen parameters were similar for the three group of patients. Conclusıons: Heavy smoking seems to have detrimental effects on tail of the spermatozoon. Heavy smokers have a higher percent of rapidly progressive sperm with respect to light smokers. But the fact that no significant difference exist between nonsmokers and heavy smokers in terms of motility made us think that this enhancement begins after a treshold.
