Maternal alcohol consumption during pregnancy and semen quality in the male offspring: two decades of follow-up

Research output: Contribution to journalJournal articlepeer-review

Concurrent alcohol exposure has been associated with reduced fecundity, but no studies have estimated the effect of prenatal alcohol exposure on male fecundity. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between maternal alcohol consumption during pregnancy, semen quality and levels of reproductive hormones in young, adult men.
