Pill for male contraception proved effective in test

Scientists from Cornell University reported that in preclinical tests, their investigational medication temporarily inhibits sperm in mice and prevents conception. Researchers from Cornell University discovered that their investigational drug temporarily suppresses mouse sperm and prevents fertilisation in preclinical experiments. The researchers referred to their strategy as a “game-changer” that might open the door for a […]

Rainwater is unsafe to drink amid the ‘Forever Chemicals’ atmosphere widespread across the globe

It’s unsafe to drink rainwater due to the ongoing presence of “forever chemicals,” according to a new study published in the journal Environmental Science & Technology.

Various health conditions have been linked to PFAS contamination, including cancer, infertility, pregnancy complications, learning and behavior […]

One form of fertility treatment may raise long-term cancer risk in offspring

Prior studies have suggested that children born after frozen-thawed transfer may have higher short-term health risks, but long-term risks have been less clear. Children born as a result of a common fertility procedure involving frozen embryos may have higher risk of cancer, Swedish researchers report. In frozen-thawed embryo transfer, an embryo is created in a laboratory from […]

Why does a woman’s fertility start to diminish in her 30s well before Menopause?

It has been demonstrated that utilising drugs that fight fibrosis and support mitochondrial health, ovarian ageing in mice can be reversed. Australian researchers have shown that when mice age, they develop higher amounts of ovarian fibrosis, which is brought on by mitochondrial failure, inflammation, and excessive collagen buildup. Reduced fertility results from the modifications, stiffening […]

Why is human reproduction such a challenge?

A new study by a researcher at the Milner Centre for Evolution at the University of Bath contends that “selfish chromosomes” are to blame for the early demise of the majority of human embryos. The discovery explains why human embryos frequently don’t survive while fish embryos do not have repercussions for managing infertility. It was […]
