About
About this site
reproduction-online.org is an independent website about reproductive biology and fertility. It has two parts: a reference archive of the journals once hosted on this domain, and original articles for a general audience.
Independence notice
From the early 2000s until the journal moved to its publisher's own platform, this domain served Reproduction (published by Bioscientifica for the Society for Reproduction and Fertility, and from 2026 by Oxford University Press), its predecessor the Journal of Reproduction and Fertility, and Reviews of Reproduction. The domain later expired and was acquired by the current owner. This site is not the journal, is not operated by or affiliated with its publishers or society, and holds no rights to the articles. Where this site cites the journals' articles, it gives bibliographic metadata only (title, journal, year, DOI) and links to the publisher's version through the DOI. Nothing here is medical advice.
How the archive works
The site no longer serves a reference page for each article. Since 28 October 2026, the addresses the journal used when it lived here (including the older forms: DOI lookups, abstract, full-text and PDF variants) answer in one of two ways: an address that other sites still link to redirects permanently (301) to the research topic page that cites the article, and every other address answers 410 (gone). To read an article, follow its DOI to the publisher's version. If a citation you follow does not resolve, tell us with the address and we will fix it.
Editorial articles
Articles are signed, dated and sourced. Health content is written by non-medical writers from public sources (health authorities, clinical guidelines and published research, cited in each article); it is not reviewed by a medical professional. We correct errors in place with a dated note.
