Seminal plasma concentration of glycerylphosphorylcholine before and after vasectomy and vas reanastomosis
Fertility and Sterility
|December 1, 1979
Abstract:
The concentration of glycerylphosphorylcholine (GPC) was determined in semen obtained from normal fertile, vasectomized, and vas-reanastomosed subjects. Concentrations of GPC were markedly lower in the semen of vasectomized men. GPC levels observed in vas-reanastomosed subjects were similar to those found in normal fertile men. Vasectomy may not affect GPC synthesis significantly.
