Abstract

The manuscript is dedicated to the fact that even in a narrow specific field of reproductive andrology leading schools of thought may disagree on some definitions, but the disagreements and should not be so significant as to cause professional miscommunication. In reproductive andrology there are many terms, some of which are used incorrectly or are initially inadequately translated from foreign languages. Sadly, several of such incorrect terms are used systematically, and because of that we consider it relevant to highlight this problem on the pages of this journal to get the attention of clinical specialists and initiate further discussion.
