We assessed the association between PM and semen quality among 1759 Chinese men. PM2.5 and PM10 exposures are associated with sperm concentration and count. PM exposures are unlikely to be associated with sperm motility. PM may decrease semen quality mainly by affecting spermatogenesis. Our study emphasizes the urgent needs to reduce PM exposure in China.
