Can Intake Of Olanzapine Affect Male Fertility?

My husband and i are trying to have kids for more than a year, i had an examination and a blood work and the doctor said i am perfectly normal, then she requested an sperm test from my husband, he's been taking olanzapine 10mg (half of the pill before bed time) could this be affecting his fertility?Thanks

Hello
You didn't mention if the sperm test was normal. Olanzapine doesn't affect fertility directly according to the latest research reports.
