Women retain and carry living DNA cells from every man with whom they have sexual intercourse, according to a new study by the University of Seattle and the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center.
The study found that female brains often harbour “male microchimerism“, or in other words, the presence of male DNA cells that originated from another individual, and are genetically distinct from the cells that make up the rest of the woman.
So 63% of women carry male DNA cells that live in their brains. Obviously, the researchers wanted to know where the male DNA came from.

How? Is it when they have a raw , skin to skin, unprotected sex?

lol

Wait wait, do you mean Onyinye, Olamma, Amaka, Jibike, Jennifer, Rita, Azuka, Chioma, Chidimma etc still have my DNA?

guess this xplains why couples start to look like each other after many years together

I guess it sold b for raw

so you pulled this trash out of your *ss. This is the 21st century, we don't believe such nonsense.

help me ask o,my DNA still intact,fear has never let me go skin to skin,thank Jah

Local Champion! I can only sight u in a local league here. Almost all na village names.

Foreign champion. Twale.

This mean a man that marry a women who has slept with many men in the past and then give birth to children the children will have the DNA of the other men she slept with before marrying this is serious

I thought as much!

Do women retain DNA from every man they have ever slept with? originally appeared on Quora: the place to gain and share knowledge, empowering people to learn from others and better understand the world.

Do women retain DNA from every man they have ever slept with? No. The claim comes from an absurd clickbait article on YourNewsWire I believe OP gave the link. That article references this study, which found male cells in 37 out of 59 women’s brains studied (63%).


Where did the cells come from? The most likely explanation is pregnancy. During implantation, embryonic cells are programmed to divide extremely fast and invade the mother’s bloodstream. Sometimes, they can establish populations in other parts of her body that survive for the rest of her life.

But wait! Another study showed that a few women had male cells, even though (so far as they knew) they had never been pregnant. Based on this, the authors of the YourNewsWire article make a gigantic leap to claiming that these cells must be sperm collected from sex partners.

Now, think about sperm. They’re haploid; they can’t function like normal human cells. They’re highly specialized, having evolved solely to compete to get to the egg. They don’t survive more than a few days, even in the oviduct, which evolved to store them. And most importantly, they can’t divide.

So no, women don’t retain men’s sperm for life. That’s just silly.

Why do some women who’ve never been pregnant still have male cells? Most likely they had been pregnant, they just didn’t know it. It’s thought that around half of all pregnancies end in spontaneous miscarriage, very often before they are detected.

There are also two other plausible sources for these cells:
(1) cells from an older brother that had been retained in the woman’s mother were incorporated by the woman when she was growing in the womb or
(2) cells from a male twin that was absorbed before birth.

It’s remotely possible that women might sometimes retain some non-sperm cells from male partners, since that’s never been studied and biology is weird. But there’s currently no reason to think it’s true, and many reasons to think it’s not.

For starters, the female reproductive tract is actually a horribly unfriendly place to start a new cell colony. If it weren’t, you’d have embryos growing all over the place, and an ectopic pregnancy is really bad news.

You would be far more likely to “catch” someone else’s cells in an open wound, but that’s also extraordinarily rare (e.g. the case of the surgeon who developed cancer after cutting his hand during surgery on a cancer patient). Cancers are cancers because they proliferate aggressively — in fact they often use the same genetic architecture as embryos. But even so, we don’t generally worry about catching cancer, because our immune defenses rapidly eradicate foreign cells.

Don't be so quick to jump on anything fed to you. Research, ask questions, consult common sense. Anyways the whole story is a hoax, it is not possible for women to absorb DNA from sexual partners and store it in their brain...

hahahhaha. u are not serious

Just in case your kid winds up looking like the guy down the street

I pity ignoranmouses saying it's a lie, the DNA in the sperm cells of every man a woman sleeps with is stored in " the female's brain ", some traits are passed down to her kids. It's still undergoind more research, but for now, science has proven the genetic material lover of " ALL " a female's lover are stored in their brain...

don't u think there is an element of truth in it? Come to think of it, u born a child or children nd u notice one of dem or all of em behaving different from u or any of family members, what ll come u mind?

Even when faced with facts you still look the other way. Sad indeed

how did you know? Have you been having sex with so many men to find out this?
