Why are obese men having low fertility?

Male  29 years old 2018-06-10
Because I was fatter than before, I have always been inferior. I heard from friends that obese men's fertility will be reduced. Why?

    This is because compared with thinner men, obese men have lower levels of testosterone in the blood, lower luteinizing hormone and follicle stimulating hormone, the latter two hormones are very important for fertility.
