Abstract:
Studies of reproduction among individuals with schizophrenia published in this century are reviewed. Past studies suggesting normalization of reproductive deficits are disputed in view of recent reports of a persistent impairment. The handicap appears to be more significant among men with schizophrenia. The implications of these findings for genetic research in schizophrenia are discussed.
