Help me see if eating vegetarian can lead to infertility, is it true?

Patient's question:

I saw an article online saying that eating a vegetarian diet can lead to infertility. Is that true? I've never eaten meat since I was a child, will I get infertility? I'm very worried

Doctor's answer:

Coffee has a direct impact on fertility. Surveys have shown that women who drink more than one cup of coffee per day have only half the likelihood of pregnancy compared to those who do not consume this beverage. Therefore, if women plan to become pregnant, they should reduce their coffee intake. Many processed foods are delicious and spicy, mainly because they are loaded with additives during the production process, such as stabilizers, anti-caking agents, and colorings, which contain aluminum additives. For young men in their reproductive years, excessive aluminum in the body can lead to a decrease in both the quantity and quality of mature sperm. For women in their reproductive period, excessive aluminum can cause abnormal fetal development.
