Hello,
High temperatures can affect the sperm production and might cause infertility.
In your case it can be a transient change or wrong reading.
You can repeat the test and you have to compare it with the body temperature to check whether it is a generalised feature or not.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
