PMID: 25629662 Mitocondrial donation--how many women could benefit?[1] This is a statistical analysis of the prevalence of women of child bearing age that have pathogenic mutation to their mitochondria that could benefit from mitochondrial donation in the UK. And the affects of the mitochondrial mutation on fertility as compared to background natural birth rate. They found no difference in fertility rates and 4% of women at risk of passing on symptomatic mitochondrial disease.
