About this episode
Around the world, we’re seeing declining sperm counts, rising infertility, more erectile dysfunction, and lower testosterone—even in younger men.
These trends aren’t just affecting family planning; they’re pointing to something much bigger happening in men’s health.
Joining me today on The Dr. Hyman Show is Dr. Michael Eisenberg, a Stanford researcher and leading voice in male reproductive health. We talk about why sperm quality matters far beyond fertility—and how everyday health choices quietly shape it. Watch the full conversation on YouTube or listen wherever you get your podcasts.

We cover:
• Why sperm quality may be one of the strongest early indicators of overall health and longevity
• How metabolic dysfunction, belly fat, and low testosterone impact fertility and sexual function
• The role environmental toxins and endocrine disruptors play in declining sperm counts
• What men can do right now to protect fertility and long-term vitality
When we look at fertility through the lens of whole-body health, it changes how we think about prevention, risk, and longevity. Male fertility isn’t just about reproduction. It’s a signal.
