Long-term Male Fertility after Treatment with Radioactive Iodine for Differentiated Thyroid Carcinoma

CONCLUSIONS: Participants had a normal long-term semen quality. The proportion of participants with low semen quality parameters scoring below the 10th percentile did not differ from the general population. Cryopreservation of semen of males with DTC is not crucial for conceiving a child after RAI administration, but may be considered in individual cases.PMID:34582359 | DOI:10.1530/EJE-21-0315
