Fertility news;10 July 2008

Doctors have warned that obese men should lose weight after research linked a fall in sperm quality to obesity.

In a study,records of over 2000 men with details of their body mass index attending Aberdeen Fertility Centre were examined.

Obese men produced 60% less seminal fluid and 40% higher levels of abnormal sperm than men with a healthy BMI.

Diabetes can also damage fertility.

Researchers in Brazil are looking into whether stem cells from human teeth is possible.

Some people however believe it is unlikely to work.
