Male infertility is an increasingly common issue, affecting approximately 1 in 8 couples trying to conceive. At Patients Medical in New York City, we take a holistic, integrative approach to treating male infertility. Rather than focusing only on symptoms, we aim to uncover and address the root causes of infertility—whether hormonal imbalances, lifestyle factors, or underlying medical conditions. Our goal is to help improve fertility naturally and guide you toward a healthier path to conception.
