Endocrine Meeting Finds GLP-1s Aid Fertility in Obese Men

Researchers at ENDO 2026 in Chicago presented a study showing GLP-1s may improve testosterone and sperm quality in men with obesity.
Pratibha Natesh of Warwick Medical School said treating obesity and metabolic issues can restore hormone levels.
A review of five clinical trials found improvements in testosterone and sperm quality after 16-24 week GLP-1 treatment.
Lidia Minguez Alarcon cautioned that GLP-1s shouldn't be prescribed as first-line infertility treatment without further studies.
15% of U.S. couples struggle with conception, and Amin Herati of Johns Hopkins urged men to seek fertility evaluations.
