Depression pill may damage men’s chances of having children

Anti-depressants taken by millions of Britons may damage a man’s sperm and limit his chances of fatherhood, doctors have warned.

Taking paroxetine tablets for just a few weeks can more than double the amount of damage to the DNA in sperm, a study found.

IVF doctors said the findings were ‘alarming’.

But they warned those keen to start a family not to stop taking their anti-depressants without speaking to their doctor first because coming off the treatment could increase the risk of suicide.

The researchers, from the Cornell Medical Centre in New York, examined the sperm of 35 healthy men before and after a course of the popular anti-depressant paroxetine, which is also known as Seroxat.

Superficially, the men’s sperm seemed healthy, with the quantity, shape and ability to move all showing as normal.

But closer inspection revealed that the proportion with DNA damage rose from 13.8 per cent to 30.3 per cent after just four weeks, New Scientist magazine reports.

This should not surprise anyone. The global elite and new world order want to kill off a third of the world’s population so that they can live in the fantasy world that they have dreamed of and are trying to create. Why do you think they are destroying the “middle class”?

The eugenicists are creaming themselves over this. And oh, it’s by design of course. Don’t believe me? Well, take that “blue pill” and find out!

I don’t think NWO wants to get rid of only a third of the population, it’s more like half at minimum!

when the mind experiences trauma from whatever it is reacting to. it commonly wants to shut down the parts of the brain which control happiness. those who have gone insane have killed pleasure and pain and drift in absntia of any mental reaction. Depression is a result of non resolution in the mind towards an experience in someones life. Earth naturally produces plants which can reduce the symptoms, unfortunately humankind has deemed them wrong and ruins the life of anyone who would benefit from the use of such natural medicines.

Big pharmacy and big governement is responsible for millions of deaths or suffering by people who couldnt get acces to non man made remedies. This is not America. Its a nightmarer of greed and manipulative demonisations of the innocent for the effect of singular control.
