No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The investigators will investigate the effect of antioxidants and lifestyle factors on the level of oxidative stress. As oxidative stress cannot be directly measured, it will be approximated by the DNA fragmentation index (DFI) which reflects the level of DNA damage in sperm caused by oxidative stress.

Conditions

  • Infertility, Male

Interventions

DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

Intake of antioxidant supplement

All participants will supplent oral antioxidants (individual or combined which can be obtained without prescription, and which are not regulated as a pharmaceutical drug) over three months.
