In this study, data about of the main indicators in spermograms - volume, concentration, motility, and deviations in sperm morphology of patients with reproductive problems were observed and analyzed. The correlation of these indicators with the age of the patients was followed. For this purpose, 99 patients observed for one year are divided into three age groups: 20 to 29 years; from 30 to 39 years; 40 years and over. Semen analysis according to the WHO and assessment of sperm morphology according to Kruger criteria is applied. As a result, a statistically significant negative correlation between the age of the patients and the volume of the ejaculate was established. There is no age-related change in sperm concentration and motility. There are no significant differences in sperm morphology in individual age groups.
