Does anyone have any more info about DMSO causing sterilization??!! I just bought some to try on a hamstring pull that is taking a long time to heal- but am worried about this potential side effect and can't find any more info on it. ALso- is DMSO ever taken internally? if so..how?

DMSO causing infertility? I think that is quite the opposite of the truth: DMSO is used often to increase fertility in animals--most often cows/bulls, as far as I know. I'm sure using DMSO on your leg will be just fine. Also, DMSO is used very often in human in-vitro fertilization. After they fertilize eggs in the petri dish, and form zygotes, they are soaked in DMSO prior to cryo freezing. These frozen embryos make healthy babies at a really good rate after they are implanted.

The problem with one misstatement of fact is that it travels around the world in a split second. I recommend reading DMSO the persecuted drug, before making statements like DMSO causes sterility in humans. Either you have not done any research or somebody told you something and instead of checking it out and confirming or disproving, you just posted it. In law a perjured person is a person who has spoken a lie, whether or not intentional does not matter. Now, are you speaking that you personally have been sterilized and the blood tests have come back that DMSO did that to you? Well, please grace us with the report because if that is true then we must be careful to avoid this deadly substance. What ever your issue is, please research before spewing it. Thank you.

Sorry, Judge Sojournor but ur pretentious self is evident in chastising someone who just asked an innocent question. Please provide us with more of ur extensive knowledge on DMSO or is ur research limited to intimidating others needing answers? we all know how to ‘research' but often the research is an opinion..and u would know..

The problem is she made it sound like a fait accompli and with ZERO evidence; this is an insidious "FUD" method of guerilla warfare with paid pharma trolls.

It was more than a little irritating to me as well; do take note no evidence has still been provided, which smells very fishy to me.
