Methodology: Two hundred fourteen infertile men who had been smoking cigarette and one hundred thirty infertile non smokers’ men participated in this study. Seminal volume, sperm concentration, motility, viability, and morphology were examined. Results: The quality of spermatozoa obtained from smokers were much lower than non-smokers (P20 cigarettes per day). The smokers according to the duration of smoking were divided into short term, 1-10 years and long term, 11-20 years. Pak J Med Sci 2007 Vol. 23 No. 5

Semen Analysis: Semen samples were collected by masturbation in a clean specimen container after a sexual abstince for 3-6 days, allowed to liquefy and evaluated immediately thereafter according to WHO guidelines. 7 Ejaculate volume, PH, and time to liquefaction were measured. The results of semen analyses were classified according to the nomenclature of semen viables.7 Normozoospermia was diagnosed when sperm concentration, motility and morphology were within the reference values. The reference value for sperm concentration was >50% sperm with forward progression (categories ‘a’ and ‘b’) or >25% sperm with category ‘a’ movement, and for morphology 30% sperm with normal morphology respectively. Statistics: Data were presented as mean as, if applicable, and the significance of differences were analyzed by t-test. Statistical analysis was performed by means of SPSS 7.5 for windows software packet. The significance of differences was set at P
