Currently, assisted reproduction laboratories have various tests that help diagnose infertility in the patient. The spermatogram is the evaluation of the macroscopic and microscopic characteristics of the seminal samples, however, from this analysis it is not possible to obtain a vision of the integrity of the genetic material of the sperm, this being an important indicator of male fertility. On the contrary, there is an analysis that evaluates the integrity of the genetic material of the sperm: sperm DNA fragmentation test. It is an exam that determines the percentage of breaks and damage that exists in the DNA, as well as the severity of the deterioration. Damage to the genetic material is important since it is related to spontaneous abortions, low fertilization percentage and poor embryonic quality. Over the years the relationship between the sperm DNA fragmentation index (IFA) and the spermatogram has been studied, with controversy regarding the results. The present study was based on patients who reside in Peru and who have carried out these analyzes in a fertility clinic where it is proposed to find the relationship between seminal parameters and sperm DNA fragmentation, based on the most influential factors that can alter seminal quality, such as stress, environmental pollution, sedentary work, excessive consumption of substances harmful to the body such as alcohol and tobacco. The study was carried out from a database, the variables being: age, days of sexual abstinence, the patient's IFA and three parameters of the spermatogram: motility, concentration and sperm morphology. As a result, an inverse and significant correlation was obtained between the IFA and the seminal parameters studied.
