🧬 Causes of Sperm DNA Damage 🧬 Did you know that sperm DNA fragmentation (SDF) can result from various internal and external factors? Here are some key contributors: 1️⃣ **Problems During Sperm Production**: Errors in spermatogenesis, like defective chromatin packaging and abortive apoptosis, can lead to damaged DNA in sperm. 2️⃣ **Post-Testicular Damage**: Once sperm leave the testes, they can become vulnerable to oxidative stress, especially if stored in the epididymis for too long. 3️⃣ **Li
