#02 - Dr Geoffry De Iuliis - The Sperm Crisis: What’s Really Driving Male Infertility?

Infertility rates across the developed world are on the rise — and around one in six Australian couples will face fertility challenges. A major part of the problem? A decline in sperm count and quality.In this episode, I’m joined by reproductive biologist Dr. Geoffrey De Iuliis, whose world-leading research is uncovering the hidden factors behind male infertility. From oxidative stress and environmental toxins to the potential effects of mobile phone radiation, Geoff’s team is asking the hard questions: Why does infertility occur in some men? How can we treat it? And what lifestyle changes can protect fertility?We dive deep into the science of sperm health, exploring how damage at the molecular level can sabotage fertility and how social factors are pushing younger generations decisions to conceive back later and later.Whether you’re planning a family, working in health, or simply curious about how modern life is impacting men’s biology, this conversation sheds light on a silent crisis and where the science is taking us.
