Highlights
- Higher Life’s Essential 8 (LE8) adherence correlates with enhanced sperm concentration and motility in healthy reproductive-aged men.
- Positively associated sperm parameters include total sperm count, total motility, and progressive motility with each 10-point increment in LE8 score.
- Men with the highest LE8 adherence are substantially less likely to present with abnormal seminogram results per WHO 2010 criteria.
- Findings underscore the importance of integrated cardiovascular health behaviors and factors in male reproductive potential.
