A Randomized Control Trial of the Menevit Anti-Oxidant Therapy for the Treatment of Male Infertility
Oxidative stress related damage to sperm is believed to be a major cause of male infertility. The object of the Menevit study is to investigate the role of a novel anti-oxidant preparation (Menevit) on sperm function, embryo quality and pregnancy rates in an in vitro fertilization (IVF) setting.

Conditions
- Infertility, Male
- Oxidative Stress
Interventions
- Menevit anti-oxidant
Primary outcomes
- Embryo quality (morphology score, progression to blastocyst rates, number of embryos available for freezing/transfer per cycle)
- Embryo quality is a good measure of pregnancy potential and is also an indicator of sperm DNA integrity, making it the ideal primary endpoint.
