Can Excess Intake Of Benadryl Affect The Sperm?

I have been trying to concieve and stumbled upon some information claiming that Benadryl can affect sperm. Is this information correct? If so, in what way does it affect the sperm? I take Benadryl often (50mg dose at night) in order to sleep and control my allergies at night.

Hii

I admire you for positive outlook.


There are some review in western literature suggest that it affect sperms.

But it is not scientifically proven.
I have never seen any patient in my practice.


So no need to worry.
If you are better on it then continue to take it.
Thank you.
