What Moves Men to Change? A Mixed‐Methods Study on Facilitators and Barriers of Lifestyle Changes in Men Seeking Fertility Care
This study identifies previously unknown facilitators and barriers for lifestyle changes in men seeking fertility care. It also reveals barriers experienced by HCPs when counseling male patients about lifestyle. These results should inspire fertility departments to (re)design lifestyle interventions and policies for men seeking fertility care.
