Research progress on the application of antioxidants in the treatment of low fertility women
Oxidative stress is closely linked to the decline inof female fertility caused by various fac-tors.Antioxidants,which can counteract oxidative stress,have been increasingly used as adjunctive therapy for women with reduced fertility.However,there are limited clinical studies on whether antioxidants can enhance fertility in women with low reproductive capacity and improve pregnancy outcomes,with inconsistent results and generally low-quality evidence.This paper reviewed the impact of oxidative stress on female fertility and discusses the progress of research on the application of antioxidants in common conditions that lead to reduced female fertility and are closely associated with oxidative stress,such as polycystic ovary syndrome,endometri-osis,and unexplained infertility,aiming to provide a reference for clinical treatment.
