Abstract
The influences of environmental contaminants on human health, including fertility, are well documented. Previous research from this laboratory has demonstrated the potential effects of agricultural and other industrial pollutants on ART outcomes. In these earlier studies, differences were demonstrated in the available sperm, the number of oocytes recovered, the number of healthy oocytes, and the number of atretic oocytes in patients living in rural and urban environments (P < 0.05). However, fertilization rates and pregnancy outcomes did not appear to be influenced by the maternal home environment.
