Pregnant Drinking Hits Son's Fertility

In an interesting study carried out by Danish Researchers on the issue of mothers indulging in alcohol during pregnancy,a very interesting result came out.Researchers were stunned to discover that pregnant women who consumed 4.5 or more drinks a week (1 drink=0.42 ounces of alcohol),the sperm concentration of their sons,measured 20 years later,was a third lower in comparison to men who were not exposed to alcohol while in the womb.The research was carried out under Cecilia Ramlau-Hansen,of Aarhus University Hospital in Denmark and studied 347 sons of 11,980 women with singleton pregnancies between 1984 and 1987.
