The reproductive habits of helminths are important for the study of thedynamics of their transmission. For populations of parasites distributed byPoisson or negative binomial models, these habits have already been studied.However, there are other statistical models that describe these populations,such as zero-inflated models, but where reproductive characteristics were notanalyzed. Using an arbitrary model for the parasite population, we model thedistribution of females and males per host, and from these we model thedifferent reproductive variables such as the mean number of fertile females,the mean egg production, the mating probability, the mean fertilized eggproduction. We show that these variables change due to the effects of anegative density-dependence fecundity, a characteristic of helminth parasites.We present the results obtained for some particular models.
