People often say, 'There are three ways to be unfilial, and having no offspring is the greatest.' It can be imagined that the importance of male fertility in a family is significant. In fact, male infertility is not uncommon, and most of its causes are related to bad lifestyle habits. For example, the following three common behaviors among men may not seem harmful, but may lead to male infertility.
The Three Bad Habits of Infertility
1. Cross one's legs
Lying on the back of a chair with legs crossed is a classic sitting posture for many male friends, but this sitting posture can cause significant harm to men's health. On the one hand, crossing one's legs for too long can easily lead to poor blood circulation in the legs. Therefore, when standing up, the legs will become numb and swollen, and one's reproductive organs will also experience dampness and sweating, seriously affecting one's prostate health.
On the other hand, when crossing legs, the legs will be tightly clamped, so the reproductive area is not breathable, and the surrounding temperature will gradually increase. The high-temperature environment can directly harm the male reproductive organs. If the time is too long, it can also cause varicocele, and in severe cases, it may even affect fertility.
So, male friends should try not to cross their legs in daily life, and even if doing this action, it is best not to take too long, try not to exceed ten minutes. Especially for men who have been sitting in the office for a long time, they cannot always maintain a posture on the chair and should stand up and move around every hour or so. Because if you sit for just a few hours, the harm to the body is very significant, which can lead to prolonged compression of the reproductive organs and cause other reproductive organ diseases.
2. Likes to sit on a soft sofa
The soft and comfortable sofa is the favorite of many male friends after work, but I don't know how many hidden dangers lie in this comfort. According to relevant research, male friends who sit on soft sofas for a long time can cause serious damage to their reproductive organs. Because normal sitting posture is actually based on our pelvis as the fulcrum, but when we sit on a soft sofa for a long time, this fulcrum will slowly sink, causing involuntary clamping between our legs, causing the reproductive organs to be compressed, thereby hindering the flow of blood.
The toxic substances released from our bodies will still accumulate in our bodies, so this can easily have a significant impact on reproductive health. In addition, prolonged sitting on the sofa can disrupt the supply of nutrients and weaken the secretion function of the genitalia. Therefore, we must remember that soft sofas should not be sedentary for long periods of time.
3. There is pressure buried in the heart
Many male friends only work hard and never find a way to relieve their stress. Over time, this pressure can become a major factor in infertility. It is also a very bad habit to be nervous and unable to solve problems easily. In fact, mental and psychological factors can also affect male reproductive function. The low fertility of males caused by psychological factors is mainly due to abnormal mental and psychological states, leading to disorders in the body's neuroendocrine system, affecting the function of the reproductive organs, and ultimately leading to infertility.
Men have never been able to relieve stress. It's best to learn from girls about this. Eating delicious food, doing some exercise, or shouting in the open sky can effectively relieve depression in the heart. The mood is released, and everything you do is much happier.
Food that causes infertility
1. Sunflower seeds. The protein in sunflower seeds contains components that inhibit testicles, which can cause testicular atrophy and reduce fertility. People of childbearing age should not eat too much.
2. Alcohol. The main component of alcohol is ethanol, which can increase the concentration of catecholamine in the body, cause vasospasm, even atrophy the testes, and also have feminine features such as thinner voice and enlarged breasts. In this case, even if giving birth, the next generation may still experience deformities.
3. Garlic. Garlic has a spermicidal effect and can also weaken one's integrity. If consumed too much, it can lead to infertility.
4. Wool cottonseed oil. Long term consumption of wool cottonseed oil will cause people to suffer from sunburn, panic, dizziness, numbness of limbs, and even damage the reproductive system. This is also one of the foods that cause infertility.
5. Roasted beef and mutton. Roast beef and mutton is a folk custom in Inner Mongolia, Xinjiang, and other regions. After research and investigation, it has been shown that these women who eat beef and mutton, as well as the deformed babies they give birth to, are both persecuted by Toxoplasma gondii. People can become infected when they come into contact with and consume undercooked meat. Infected women may not have much sensation in the early stages of pregnancy, and when they are pregnant, they can transmit it to the fetus through the uterus, causing the fetus to deform.
6. Carrots. Carrots are rich in carotene, which can cause amenorrhea and ovulation dysfunction when consumed excessively by women. So, women of childbearing age should not eat too much.
