Hi there,
I have a question relating to FAS. As I understand it, a mother drinking during pregnancy can lead to health problems for the child before and after birth.
My question is if a fathers drinking would/could effect his sperm, causing them to somehow be damaged and also cause a child to have health problems.
Anyone got some info ?
FAS is caused by maternal alcohol consumption during gestation. Dad’s alcohol consumption does not affect FAS at all. But it can affect the quality of the sperm in other ways, and that can contribute to birth defects of other sorts.
Thanks for a pointer in the right direction hedra.
Unfortunatly the link more or less confirmed my worries.
I am now extremely angry.
