A Comparative Research on Effects of Cigarette Smoking on Male Fertility Followed by the Fragmentation of DNA
Saurabh, Arshdeep Kaur
Abstract: Cigarette smoking plays a major role in infertility of men due to presence of >4000 of chemical compounds which affects the DNA of male. Damaged DNA effects the concentration of sperm and its motility. Some time smoking can affects the morphological characteristics of sperms.

It is better to stop the intake on cigarette for the betterment of reproductive health. Objectives: To find out the known effects of smoking on male infertility by comparing them with non smoking males.
Keywords: Male infertility, DNA fragmentation, Reactive Oxygen Species, ROS
