“…Considering that subfertile men form a very large proportion of the men requiring semen cryopreservation, of most concern is the apparent increased susceptibility of spermatozoa from subfertile men to cryoinjury (6,17). Interestingly, a large number of studies examining the effectiveness of different cryoprotectants and cryopreservation methods have recruited only normospermic donors (2,(18)(19)(20). It is also important to specifically assess the quality of the separated spermatozoa that will be used for treatment, as any spermatozoon given the chance to fertilize an oocyte will come from these preparations.…”
