Abstract
Male infertility plays a clinically significant role in a large share of couples who struggle to conceive, yet standard laboratory criteria for semen analysis were designed primarily to predict success with assisted reproduction, not natural fertility. NaProTECHNOLOGY approaches male factor as a diagnosable condition with identifiable root causes, applying medical and surgical options aimed at restoring sperm function and combining that work with fertility-awareness charting to maximize the couple's chances of natural conception.
