Role of Antioxidants in Female Fertility

Abstract

The last decade has seen a noticeable advance in diagnosing and treating infertility, however, the overall incidence has remained the same, with an estimated 40% - 50% resulting from factors related to the female [1]. Unexplained infertility where the cause remains elusive, still accounts for up to 30% of cases. Increasing evidence demonstrates the significant of antioxidants in all physiological and biochemical processes in humans, including human reproduction.
