The study aimed to understand how damaged sperm DNA affects male fertility. Researchers looked at 60 samples from males in South Maharashtra. They used a special test to check the DNA quality of sperm. Results showed that sperm with more damaged DNA had lower counts, less healthy movement, and lower vitality. These sperm also had more deformities. Men with highly damaged sperm DNA took longer to benefit from infertility treatments. The test they used can help identify sperm with faults, which can impact fertility treatment success.
