This research was a trial to examine the impact of COVID-19 on the male genital system since the latter could be harmed by (COVID-19) infection, and this disorder possibly leads to infertility in males. Different research has confirmed the abnormal condition correlated with male fertility, also several reviews described the effect of COVID-19 on male fertility, also the genital system for males represented by semen fluid parameters. The results showed that the total sperms’ count, viable survival sperms in addition to normal morphological sperms appearance declined among infected patients (99 *106 per mal, 36%, Homogenous Opalescent Gray), for total viable count, progressive motile sperm and normal morphology respectively) in comparison with (45*106 per mal, 29 %, Homogenous Opalescent Gray) with sluggish or non-movable abnormal morphology sperm among patients respectively). Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the effect of COVID-19 on the male genital system. | ||||
