Male fertility
Due to being diagnosed with hiatal hernia and acid reflux, i am taking ppi since past 8 months. I have to continue the mediciation for further 1.5 month before stopping. My question is, does this medication somehow impact male fertility as in low sperm count?

If Domperidone is in ppi then Domperidone causes hyperprolactinmia.
Hyperprolactinmia causes sexual side effects.
