New Discovery! Lund University researchers Amelie Stenqvist and Aleksander Giwercman have linked DNA damage in s***m to pregnancy complications for the first time!

A high proportion of s***m with DNA strand breaks is linked to double the risk of preeclampsia and increases the likelihood of premature birth in IVF pregnancies.

As infertility treatments like IVF become more common, this research highlights the crucial role of the father’s s***m health. Damaged DNA in s***m affects pregnancy outcomes, and this new understanding could change how we assess male fertility.

The study suggests that s***m DNA fragmentation index (DFI) testing should become a standard part of fertility checks. Currently, only some clinics offer this, but it could help couples struggling with fertility and identify high-risk pregnancies.

What’s even more exciting is that many factors behind s***m DNA damage—such as age, smoking obesity , and stress—can be treated! This could open new doors to reducing pregnancy risks and improving outcomes for both parents and babies.

The Chinese texts in the Han Dynasty were written after at least a 1500-year history of empirical observation. The Chinese had “advanced science.” However, it was a qualitative, functional, and holistic science based on contemplation and not a materialistic, structural, reductionist science based on measurement.
The qualifications of a rational science are:

1.Empirical observation
2.Repeatable results
3.Predicative ability
4.Falsifiability
5. Reference to an agreed upon set of standards.

Chinese medicine meets all these qualifications. The Classic Texts, the Nei Jing, Nan Jing, and Ling Shu are rational textbooks that practitioners still refer to and learn from today. The points were codified over centuries based on empirical observation, holistic theory, and contemplation.
The theoretical strength of Western medicine based upon the materialistic and reductionist worldview is in critical care medicine. The further one applies the medicine from that context it serves as a repressive force that drives illness deeper. Chinese medicine excels at prevention and long-term management of complex conditions involving not just the physical body but the inner dimensions of the self-such as mind, psyche, soul, and spirit.
