    Fertility and Sterility On Air - Roundtable: Male Infertility, Immune Function, and Antisperm Antibodies

    Welcome to Fertility & Sterility Roundtable, hosted by Dr. Emily Barnard and Dr. Ben Peipert! Each week, we will host a discussion with the authors of "Views and Reviews" and "Fertile Battle" articles published in a recent issue of Fertility & Sterility.  Today, we will be discussing the Views and Reviews from the May 2026 edition of Fertility and Sterility entitled "Male Infertility and Immune Function."  This Views and Reviews brought together experts, some of whom we will be interviewing today, who evaluated and summarized the evidence on how the immune system plays a role in male fertility and infertility in general. We know that infertility is caused, at least in part, by a male component in about 50% of cases, and we are appreciative to our guests for joining us in discussion today. We encourage all of our listeners to read the full articles in the journal as we will not be able to cover all the content in this episode. Dr. Michael L. Eisenberg is a Professor of Urology and Obstetrics & Gynecology at the Stanford University School of Medicine.  He is the director of Men's Health at Stanford.  Dr. Eisenberg's NIH-funded laboratory seeks to understand the association between a man's reproductive, sexual, and overall health.  Dr. Marcelo Mass Lindenbaum is a clinical research fellow at the Cleveland Clinic Foundation, soon to be transitioning to his urology residency at Cleveland Clinic Akron General. His primary academic research focuses on male infertility and its relationship with the urologic microbiome, and infection risks associated with prosthetic surgery. Dr. Scott Lundy is a Staff Urologist and Surgeon Scientist at the Cleveland Clinic Foundation who specializes in male reproductive medicine, sexual dysfunction, and microsurgery. Beyond his clinical practice, Dr. Lundy leads significant research efforts, including establishing a multi-institutional consortium to advance the study and treatment of male infertility.

    Fertility and Sterility On Air - Roundtable: Data-driven analysis of fertility optimization

    Welcome to Fertility & Sterility Roundtable, hosted by Dr. Emily Barnard and Dr. Ben Peipert! Each week, we will host a discussion with the authors of "Views and Reviews" and "Fertile Battle" articles published in a recent issue of Fertility & Sterility.  Today, we will be discussing the Views and Reviews from the June 2026 edition of Fertility and Sterility entitled "Data Driven Analysis of Fertility Optimization"  This Views and Reviews brought together experts, some of whom we will be interviewing today, who evaluated and summarized the evidence on optimization of fertility using diet and lifestyle interventions, surgical restoration of anatomy, menstrual cycle tracking, and comparative data between these methods and in vitro fertilization. The authors discuss what we know and where knowledge gaps exist. I do encourage our listeners to read the full breadth of articles as I know this topic is something almost all my patients ask me about.  Dr. Eve Feinberg is a Professor and REI fellowship program director in the division of Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine. Dr. Feinberg is both an Editorial Editor at Fertility and Sterility and co-host of our big-sister podcast Fertility and Sterility On Air.
