Most doctors and health groups try to discourage women from drinking alcohol completely while pregnant. However, there’s little research done on alcohol’s impact on fertility. Recently a new study by researchers from the Aarhus University Hospital in Denmark, the Boston University School of Public Health, and RTI Health Solutions in North Carolina, searched for an answer to that question. The study showed that less than 14 servings of alcohol a week had no effect on a woman’s ability to conceive, but 14 servings or more decreased the likelihood of becoming pregnant.
