Researchers in the United States have linked commonly used antidepressants to a reduction in some men’s fertility.
The researchers from the Cornell Medical Center in New York say the drugs, selective serotonin-reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), taken by millions of men to alleviate depression, damage the DNA of the sperm.
According to scientists Peter Schlegel and Cigdem Tanrikut the fertility of a substantial number of men on paroxetine may be adversely affected by these changes in sperm DNA.
Similar levels of sperm DNA damage have been linked to problems with embryo viability in couples trying to have children.
