AbstractLiraglutide is an agonist of the glucagon-like peptide I receptor, and is commonly recommended as a treatment for obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Adverse effects related to liraglutide include acute pancreatitis and polyarthritis. No studies, however, have reported an adverse effect of liraglutide on male reproduction. This case report shows a deleterious effect of liraglutide on male reproductive function.Copyright © 2014 Reproductive Healthcare Ltd. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
