Over the past half a century many countries have witnessed rapid fall in total fertility rates, particularly world's most advanced economies including industrial powerhouses of Eastern Asia and Europe. Such nations now passed through first second demographic transitions are currently exhibiting rates well below replacement threshold 2.1, with no sign recovery. This paper examines factors responsible for driving these considers their impact on both fecundity (our fundamental capacity to reproduce). I argue that because transition was extremely largely driven by socioeconomic factors, it has had lasting genetic/epigenetic underpinnings human fecundity. However, will be different. A series conditions associated low societies, relaxed selection pressure high-fertility genotypes, indiscriminate use assisted reproductive technologies treat infertility, environmental contamination toxicants, may our genetic constitution ways compromise future species. Since any change foundations reproduction difficult reverse, we should actively pursue methods monitor fecundity, as sub-replacement levels become established across globe.

3-Methyl-4-nitrophenol (PNMC) is a prevalent nitrophenolic endocrine disruptor found in pregnant women, with known effects on offspring growth and development. However, its impact fertility remains unexplored. This study investigates the of PNMC exposure during pregnancy underlying mechanisms. Our assessments revealed that reduced number follicles spermatozoa offspring, though it did not affect their quality. In male impaired spermatogenesis by reducing Sertoli cells spermatogonia. female disrupted first meiotic prophase (MPI) oocytes, leading to diplotene oocytes available for primordial follicle assembly. depletion reserve ultimately resulted subfertility. Specifically, hindered homologous recombination-mediated DNA double-strand break repair, triggering activation checkpoint MPI arrest. arrested progression oocytes. provide comprehensive evidence reproductive capacity, elucidating key pathways. These findings emphasize need stricter regulatory measures limit offer new insights into etiology idiopathic oligozoospermia diminished ovarian reserve.

Bisphenol A (BPA) is a common synthetic chemical compound classified as an endocrine disruptor. It affects multiple physiological systems in the body, including female reproductive system, particularly granulosa cells (GCs) ovaries, where steroidogenesis occurs. This study investigated impact of various BPA concentrations (environmentally relevant 0.001 µM and 0.1 toxicological concentration 100 µM) exposure times (24 72 h) on cell viability counts vitro production estradiol progesterone human GCs collected from waste follicular fluid IVF patients. Gene expression analysis 182 genes associated with apoptosis was performed using PCR arrays, followed by protein Western blot. Our results demonstrate that after longer (72 h), higher (100 negatively cellular significantly alters steroid hormone biosynthesis vitro, leading to reduced culture medium. We found all altered different steroidogenesis- apoptosis-related GCs. At μM, decreased TRIM25, UGT2B15, CASP3, RPS6KA3 increased NR6A1 PPID genes.
