Aim: To study the effects of smoking on the semen parameters in infertile men in Erbil. Methods: Semen samples of 110 cigarette smokers and 110 strictly non-smoking primary infertility patients were included in the study after strict patient selection criteria was taken into consideration. All samples were analyzed for liquefaction time, Ph, volume, sperm density, sperm motility, sperm morphology. Results: The results obtained revealed a highly significant difference between both groups regarding grade a motility and significant difference regarding grades b & c. Conclusion: Cigarette smoking may affect semen quality through its effect on sperm motility.
