The Centre for Disease Control and Prevention has shared how there is “no evidence” the Covid-19 vaccine, or any vaccine, impacts fertility.
Their guidance reads: “COVID-19 vaccination is recommended for people who are trying to get pregnant now or might become pregnant in the future, as well as their partners.
“Professional medical organizations serving people of reproductive age, including adolescents, emphasize that there is no evidence that COVID-19 vaccination causes a loss of fertility.
“These organizations also recommend COVID-19 vaccination for people who may consider getting pregnant in the future.
“Professional societies for male reproduction recommend that men who want to have babies in the future be offered COVID-19 vaccination.
“There is no evidence that vaccines, including COVID-19 vaccines, cause male fertility problems.”
