Long Description
Can Normal Couples Also Have Genetic Defects?
Dr. Anuradha Tamaria, Senior Consultant and Fertility Specialist, explains why even normal couples can have genetically abnormal embryos.

Age of the Parents
As parents age, the chances of fertility issues increase. Age affects the quality of gametes (sperm and oocytes), which in turn affects the success rate of fertility treatments.

Inherited Genetic Mutations
Even normal couples with no history of genetic disorders can carry recessive genetic mutations, which when combined, can form genetically abnormal embryos.

Random Genetic Errors
Fertilization involves a cell division process called meiosis. During this process, random genetic errors can occur, leading to an abnormal number of chromosomes in the embryos and resulting in genetic abnormalities.

Sperm Quality
Factors like smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, and medical disorders such as diabetes can affect sperm quality, leading to fragmented DNA and abnormal embryos.

Environmental Factors
Exposure to chemicals, radiation, cancer treatment, and certain medications like antidepressants and anti-anxiety drugs can increase the chances of forming genetically abnormal embryos.

Impact of Lifestyle
Poor diet, lack of exercise, smoking, and stress can all affect the quality of gametes. If the quality of gametes is compromised, the chances of forming abnormal embryos increase.
