Abstract
Introduction: Defining the lowest normal values of semen parameters, which are required for fertility, is of utmost importance in the diagnosis and management of infertile couples. These values are defined periodically by W.H.O. However, it has been emphasized that semen parame-ters should be determined regionally or nationally. The objective of this study was to evaluate semen parameters in fertile couples in Isfahan. Materials & Methods: Semen samples were obtained from partners of 234 pregnant women referring to gynecologists throughout Isfahan. Questionnaires, including time to pregnancy (TTP), were filled out. Semen samples were analyzed according to WHO guidelines. Results were ana-lyzed and odds ratios were calculated by the use of SPSS statistical software and the level of significance was considered
