Data regarding history, physical examination and seminal parameters were taken from the case records. Semen was collected by masturbation in all cases in to a clean, dry container. After liquefaction, basic analysis was done which included volume, density, Ph, sperm concentration, motility and morphology. Results: The incidence of male infertility in our series was found to be 39 %. Out of the 75 cases with abnormal semen parameters, 55 % had oligospermia. Conclusion: Male factor infertility is an important cause of infertility in our population. 41/75 cases belonged to 21 to 30 year age group. Azoospermia contributed to 55% of cases.
