Several diseases associated with infertility and reproductive dysfunction are linked to oxidative stress including endometriosis, unexplained infertility, PCOS, POF, menstrual cycle irregularities, preterm labor, recurrent miscarriage, egg health, sperm health, and motility. Several studies show that antioxidant supplementation can reduce oxidative stress, which positively affects the outcome of each of these issues.
CoQ10 is one of the most well researched antioxidants relating to sperm health and egg quality. The most biologically active form of coenzyme Q10, known as Ubiquinol, has been shown through several studies to improve both egg and sperm health, while playing a key role in protecting DNA at a cellular level.
Studies published in the Journal of Fertility and Sterility show both improved egg quality and egg fertilization rates in older women consuming up to 600 mg of CoQ10 daily; and improved sperm motility in men supplementing with 200 mg of CoQ10 per day.
