What is the purpose of this trial?

The proposed research aims to 1) measure male participants' urinary levels of EDCs and sperm quality before and after report-back and EDC reduction intervention and assess changes, 2) assess the extent to which MM's program (testing, curriculum, and report-back) alters participant environmental health literacy (EHL), readiness to change (RtC), and product/lifestyle choices, and 3) test the feasibility and acceptability of MM's program to male participants. The primary study subjects are adult men of reproductive age. The study aims to have 60 participants complete the study.
