In this literature review, the effect of complex antioxidant therapy aimed at correcting oxidative stress, replenishing vitamin deficiencies, trace elements and low molecular weight peptides, has been studied, resulting in damage to the DNA of spermatozoa. In turn, low DNA integrity indicators are associated with a decrease in the probability of natural conception, a decrease in the fertilizing capacity of sperm, an increase in the frequency of embryonic developmental disorders and miscarriages, and an increase in the likelihood of developing cancer in neonates.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
