Abstract:
Electroejaculation is becoming more available for obtaining semen from spinal cord injured men wishing to father children. This study was undertaken to determine what effect the electroejaculation procedure itself had on sperm motility. Factors which were found to impact on sperm motility were osmolarity, electric current and aqueous jelly lubricant used for bladder catheterisation. pH did not affect sperm motility.
