Drinking during pregnancy affects sperm

Danish researchers have carried out a study showing that women who drink during pregnancy may be damaging the future fertility of their sons.  A third of the 350 young men studied, had lower sperm levels whose mothers had drunk more than four drinks a week during pregnancy compared with teetotallers.  The researchers told a fertility conference that these men may have a harder time getting their partner pregnant.

Current advice is to avoid alcohol during pregnancy.
