Antioxidants are essential for fertility and reproductive health. Cellular oxidative and nitrosative stress induced by free radicals might negatively impact fertility and reproductive organ function. Numerous reproductive complications and disorders, such as endometriosis, polycystic ovarian syndrome, oocyte aging, dysmenorrhea and premenstrual syndrome, spontaneous abortion, and infertility, have been linked to imbalances in the oxidant/ antioxidant interaction. Studies have examined dietary antioxidant supplementation that has been the focus of dietary antioxidant treatment for the treatment and/or prevention of recurring spontaneous abortions and infertility that cannot be explained. The sources are exploited which can abolish reactive oxygen species from our system for the management of reproductive diseases and in promoting fertility and normal reproductive physiology. This review focuses on the antioxidant therapies for the prevention and treatment of reproductive disease linked to oxidative stress, as well as the function antioxidants play in female reproductive health and fertility.
