Infertility is relatively common affecting approximately 1-in-6 couples. Although the genetic basis of infertility is increasingly being uncovered, the contribution of male infertility often remains unexplained. The leading cause of pregnancy loss and cognitive impairment in humans is chromosome aneuploidy. Sperm aneuploidy is routinely evaluated by fluorescence in situ hybridization. The majority of studies have reported similar findings, namely: (1) all men produce aneuploid sperm; (2) certain chromosomes are more prone to undergo chromosome nondisjunction; (3) infertile men typically have significantly higher levels of sperm aneuploidy compared to controls and (4) the level of aneuploidy is often correlated with the severity of the infertility. Despite this, sperm aneuploidy screening is rarely evaluated in the infertility clinic. Within recent years, there appears to be renewed interest in the clinical relevance of sperm aneuploidy. We shall examine the gender differences in meiosis between the sexes and explore why less emphasis is placed on the paternal contribution to aneuploidy. Increased sperm aneuploidy is often perceived to be modest and not clinically relevant, compared to the female contribution. However, even small increases in sperm aneuploidy may impact fertility and IVF cycle outcomes. Evidence demonstrating the clinical relevance of sperm aneuploidy will be discussed, as well as some of the challenges precluding widespread clinical implementation. Technological developments that may lead to widespread clinical implementation will be discussed. Recommendations will be suggested for specific patient groups that may benefit from sperm aneuploidy screening and whether preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy should be discussed with these patients.
