Is this really true or false?

Is this really true about Lipton Green Tea(the drink) that it makes you fertile?Is this really true or false?
Here's an article i found on Green Tea -


Green Tea has been proven to have a large number of healing properties, however Green Tea can also increase your fertility. Although the Green Tea and fertility research is fairly new, all studies are currently pointing toward the fact that taking Green Tea in any form and in any Green Tea product may actually help people with fertility difficulties. Although women trying to conceive should not have too much caffeine on a regular basis, the fact of the matter is that although Green Tea does, in fact, contain a larger amount of caffeine, adding Green Tea to the diet of women with a lower fertility rate may actually help with conceiving a child. Unfortunately, the Green Tea fertility studies are just too fresh and inconclusive at this stage to come to definite findings. In the Green Tea fertility study which was published in April 2004 in the Journal of Reproductive Medicine, incredibly 33 percent of the women who took a Green Tea pill became pregnant in under six months, while all the women taking a placebo and not a Green Tea pill did not become pregnant at all. However, as I said, the study is just too small a number for conclusive results about Green Tea and fertility. Nonetheless, in yesteryears women who were having fertility problems may have been advised to reduce their intake of caffeine. Recent research does show that Green Tea may boost fertility. Kaiser Permanente Medical Care Program in Northern California conducted a study in Oakland where it was found that women who did drink more than one cup of caffeinated Green Tea on a daily basis actually doubled their chances of conceiving a child. There was no other association really found for other caffeinated drinks. As a result, the researchers concluded that chemical components in Green Tea other than caffeine may have been responsible for a fertility increase. As these findings were contrary to earlier findings that suggested that, in fact, caffeine can inhibit fertility, the researchers had to acknowledge that other Green Tea properties may ultimately have been responsible for enhanced fertility as well as eating less fat, not smoking and enjoying regular exercise. If you are looking to increase your fertility and believe that Green Tea may assist you to boost your fertility why not give Green Tea a try? There are also decaffeinated Green Tea products if you are concerned about consuming too much caffeine while trying to boost your fertility.Is this really true or false?
I had never heard that before. I was told not to drink it while I was pregnant (by my doctor) because it increases vitamin K production and I already had an over abundance of it so it was making my skin itch. But I've never heard of it making you fertile.
Green tea is good to drink while you are trying to get prenant, but not good when you're actually pregnant.


The brand doesn't matter.
I don't know about fertility, but green tea has so many health benefits anyway, why not try it? It sure couldn't hurt.
no its not nothing unnatural and man made cannot make u fertile its a load of crap
No, in fact you should NOT drink it when pregnant.
No it is just tea. People make all kinds of claims but reality check here.
