In recent years, a growing number of studies seem to support the beneficial effects of a very short abstinence period on sperm parameters, especially in patients with oligo-asthenozoospermia (OA). On this basis, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of a short period of abstinence (1 h) on intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) outcomes in infertile patients with severe OA. We performed a retrospective study on 313 ICSI cycles in which couples were divided into two different groups based on sperm parameters of the male partners. Group 1 included normozoospermic men or male partners with a mild OA (n = 223). Group 2 included male partners with severe OA (n = 90). They were asked to provide a second consecutive ejaculation after 1 h from the first one. The best ejaculate was used to perform ICSI. We found a significant increase of total (p < 0.001) and progressive motility (p < 0.001) in the second ejaculate of patients of Group 2 compared with those of the first one. Spermatozoa of the second ejaculate were chosen for ICSI for all patients in Group 2. We found statistically significant improvement of clinical pregnancy rate (p = 0.001) and embryo quality (p = 0.003) in couples in Group 2 compared to those of Group 1. No statistically significant difference was found in fertilization, implantation, live birth delivery, and miscarriage rates between the two groups. Therefore, a second semen sample collected after a very short time-interval in patients with severe OA allowed us to obtain significantly higher clinical pregnancy rate with improved embryo quality compared to normozoospermic men or patients with mild OA. Fertilization, implantation, live birth delivery, and miscarriage rates were similar between the two groups. The present study shows that a second consecutive ejaculate could represent a simple strategy to obtain better sperm parameters and assisted reproductive technology (ART) outcomes in infertile patients with mild-severe OA.
