High Sperm DNA Fragmentation Doubles Miscarriage Risk – Fertility Plus
Fertility Plus shared a post on LinkedIn:
“Research shows that men with high sperm DNA fragmentation face over double the risk of miscarriage compared to those with low fragmentation. This is significant, especially as studies reveal that up to 85% of men in couples experiencing recurrent miscarriages exhibit high sperm DNA damage.
Understanding the impact of sperm quality is crucial for couples trying to conceive. Factors such as lifestyle choices, environmental toxins, and health conditions can contribute to DNA fragmentation. Focusing on improving overall health may help reduce risks and support reproductive success.
