Experts Warn Missed Diagnosis of Male Infertility Causes Unnecessary IVF
Experts highlight that male infertility is under-researched and often left untreated in the UK, leading to unnecessary IVF procedures. Many causes, such as varicocele, are treatable, but lack of awareness, limited testing, and insufficient specialist availability hinder diagnosis and treatment. The recent men's health strategy omits specific focus on infertility, despite calls for more research, education, and comprehensive testing to improve outcomes and reduce mental health impacts.
