Cancer and Male Infertility

The Economist TV (United Kingdom) interviews Dr. Turek about his published research discovery showing that many infertile men may have problems with DNA repair. DNA repair is critical to normal growth and development. Studies show that problems with DNA repair can lead to cancer and infertility in animals. This finding has potentially profound implications on cancer and male infertility, as discussed in the video.

The findings could have an impact on couples’ decisions to pursue high technology pregnancies (assisted reproduction).

Dr. Turek has since shown that specific forms of cancer are related to male infertility as men age.

The Turek Clinic, located in the Northern California San Francisco Bay Area, is a unique men's health clinic dedicated to improving men's reproductive health and male fertility issues. Dr. Paul Turek, our director, is an internationally recognized urologist and dedicated microsurgeon who uses the latest techniques for vasectomy and vasectomy reversal. These include the "no scalpel" vasectomy reversal as well as a form of vasectomy reversal known as invagination epididymovasostomy. Vasectomy and vasectomy reversal costs are not insignificant, so it is important to have a clinic, like ours, which is known to have the highest vasectomy reversal success rates with the fewest complications. Our male fertility specialists can also discuss with you vasectomy and vasectomy reversal alternatives that make sense for you. Contact us now at 415-392-3200 for a consultation. Also, check out our library for extensive information on vasectomies, vasectomy reversals, variocele repair and other minimally invasive procedures.
