One hundred and twenty eight samples (seminal plasma) were studied for cholesterol. They included normozoospermia (44), oligozoospermia (22), oligoasthenozoospermia (34) and azoospermia (28). The cholesterol level in normal group was 61.48 mg/dl (32.5-97.5 mg/dl). Among the groups no difference was seen in cholesterol level. Correlation (r = 10.35) was existing between total spermatozoa count and the level of cholesterol in normozoospermia. A reverse pattern was seen in oligozoospermia (r = -4.04). There was no correlation present between cholesterol and spermatozoa motility in any groups studied.
