Abstract :

Background: Infertility is a medical problem that affects a vast proportion of the world�s young population (10%–15%). A large proportion of the world has no access to medical treatment for infertility and even in developed and emerging economics there are great inequalities in access to proper diagnosis and treatment.

Materials and Methods: This study was conducted on 250 subjects and controls in Geetanjali medical college and hospital, Udaipur. All biochemical parameters like TBARS (MDA) and Vitamin C and Vitamin E were measured by colorimetric method.

Results: In our study we found increased level of MDA and decrease vitamin C and Vitamin E in infertile female patient as compared to controls.

Conclusion: Oxidative stress, which is generally known to be present in women having infertility. Depletion of nutrient antioxidant in the body is associated with increased risk of female infertility.
