RESUMO
Factors, including exposure to substances like organophosphorus compounds (OPCs), have been linked to fertility issues, which are a growing concern. In this case study, a 29-year-old farmer and his 26-year-old wife, married for the past five years, faced challenges conceiving despite several attempts. It was found that the husband's exposure to OPCs like chlorpyrifos, malathion, diazinon, etc., had impacted the quality of his sperm. However, after undergoing treatments and making lifestyle changes such as panchakarma therapy and taking Shilajit supplements, there was an improvement in sperm quality. Through in vitro fertilization using physiological intracytoplasmic sperm injection, successful fertilization and the development of high-quality blastocysts were achieved. This case demonstrates the potential for addressing infertility caused by toxins through a blend of traditional medicinal practices and modern reproductive technologies. It underscores the need for research into strategies that can reduce the effects of OPC exposure on male fertility.
