The coronavirus vaccine has no effect on male or female fertility, a study carried out by the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Sheba Medical Center in Tel Hashomer showed, according to a Jerusalem Post report.
The study evaluated 36 couples who underwent unsuccessful fertility treatments before being vaccinated with the Pfizer vaccine and then came back for another round of fertility treatments afterward.
The researchers thoroughly examined all criteria and found that the vaccines had absolutely no impact on any aspect of fertility.
“We decided to carry out this research because many people are scared of the possible effects of the vaccines on fertility,” said Prof. Raoul Orvieto, director of Sheba’s IVF Fertility Clinic and lead author of the paper, which was recently published in the journal Reproductive Biology and Endocrinology.
“Comparing two IVF [in vitro fertilization] cycles was the best way to see if the vaccine would have any impact in terms of number of eggs or any other factors,” he said. “It did not.”
“We are the first to demonstrate and publish that the vaccine has no effect on both male and female fertility,” Orvieto added.
Furthermore, a higher than average number of women in the study became pregnant after the second IVF cycle which was carried out post-vaccines.
Orvieto added that not only do vaccines not impact fertility but there have been preliminary studies showing that coronavirus infections may negatively affect both male and female fertility.
Another recently published study from the University of Miami evaluated the effect of vaccines on male fertility and also found that it had no effect.

They conducted a study using 36 couples who are already infertile? Of course vaccines won’t make them infertile if they already are! (duh) A valid study would have to be done with a much larger population who are all currently fertile.
Bahby, that “study” is being conducted now. Stay tuned…
bahby – some reading comprehension is in order…
“Furthermore, a higher than average number of women in the study became pregnant after the second IVF cycle which was carried out post-vaccines.”
GET Vaccinated At Once and recite הנני מקים מצוות ונשמרתם מאד לנפשותיכם
For those that are concerned about the possibility raised in the end of this article, that contracting covid-19 may increase the risk of infertility…worry not. I know 36 people that had the virus and many of them had children. I guess that “negates” that concern. 😆
How would you know this now? That’s what long term studies are for. No study can negate the concern, which is based on the spike proteins going to every organ in the body.
Of course anyone who has concerns about the vaccine based on incidents of reactions they are personally aware of …c’mon that’s pseudoscience merely based on anecdotal evidence. You need a large body of evidence…like 36 people
@bahby if you read the article it doesn’t say they were infertile. Plenty of fertile people undergo fertility treatments to determine why they aren’t conceiving. Only such people would have accurate data on their fertility levels, and the study shows nothing changed from before to after the vaccine. Looks solid to me.
“Study negates the claim”???
What propaganda!
It should say
“Study CLAIMS to negate”
And from a study of only 35 couples? Snd how many more actually became pregnant? 4 instead of 3? 6 instead of 5?
And how many DID have children? NONE … not yet!
There have already been many reports of men who are trying to have children
A larger study would certainly be welcome, so should it have been tested during the initial testing phase.
But anyone who has the slightest understanding about fertility issues, knows what tests can be done and that this study is indeed very reassuring.
It is quite logical to say, that getting the corona virus would cause more problems than the vaccine. This is the case Mumps!
… who have very low sperm counts post jab.
And his many women have had very RARE miscarriages in the second trimester (81% instead of 10%, in one study in UK)
This is yellow journalism!
At this point no one will be convinced. Whatever position anyone staked out at the beginning will be the position they hold ten years from now. Each side will quote only studied from their echo chamber. This applies to both sides of the debate.
There was never any evidence that the vaccine affected fertility. And if it did, it would now be obvious since the vaccine has been around long enough for people to notice.
This study is extremely misleading it’s talking about short-term which it doesn’t seem anyone is really concerned about it’s more the long-term concer.n You can look into what Dr Robert Malone has to say he’s an inventor of MRNA technology and he is not a fan of this vaccine. long-term worries of possible mutations happening due to Spike proteins lodging themselves in the uterus is the concern that people have
This last paragraph is contradictory:
Orvieto added that not only do vaccines not impact fertility but there have been preliminary studies showing that coronavirus infections may negatively affect both male and female fertility.
Possibly it should read:
Orvieto added that not only do vaccines not impact fertility but there have been preliminary studies showing that coronavirus infections may positively affect both male and female fertility.
