Smoking and drinking are not only the enemies of eugenics, but also one of the causes of infertility. Studies have shown that female smoking can interfere with and destroy normal ovarian function, leading to irregular menstruation, premature menopause and infertility. Women who smoke are prone to miscarriage, premature delivery and death even if they are pregnant. The weight of their children born is much lighter than that of non-smokers. Because the cigarette smoke contains strong teratogenic substances, men's smoking tends to reduce sperm, smoking 20 cigarettes a day, sperm survival rate is only 50%, and there are many kinds of abnormal sperm, resulting in infertility or birth of children with congenital abnormalities.
Traditional Chinese medicine has long said that there are many alcoholics without a queen. Modern medicine suggests that excessive drinking will harm the function of reproductive system, lead to endocrine disorder, and change the chromosome structure and quantity of reproductive cells. In the semen of long-term drinkers, the number of sperm decreased, the activity decreased, and the incidence of impotence and male-feminization increased significantly. Alcohol can also hinder the development and maturation of female eggs. Like smoking, long-term alcoholism can increase infertility and deformed babies. Therefore, for the sake of family happiness and the health of the next generation, unmarried and married young people should not be addicted to tobacco and alcohol, so as not to harm themselves and future generations.
To prevent infertile men, regular self-inspection is necessary
Pay attention to the reproductive health of men, which is often mentioned in our daily life. Don't be idle, check regularly and pay attention to your own health. The genitals can be checked when standing upright, leaning back and sitting. It is best to do it after taking a hot bath, because the heat will make the scrotal skin loose and the testicles will drop. This state of relaxation, easy contact of testicles, and easy to find abnormalities.
First, pay attention to the contraction and relaxation cycle of testicular muscles and experience the reflex of testicles. Then check one testicle at a time. Place your thumbs on your testicles and your index and middle fingers below. Then apply a small amount of pressure on the testicles to make them roll between the fingers.
The testicular surface should be quite smooth and firm in hardness. There are individual differences in the appearance and texture of male testicles, so it is important to know their anatomy, because only in this way can you find out whether there is any change. There are two testicles that allow us to compare directly, which is helpful to find abnormalities (although there is usually a slight difference in the size of the two testicles). Some areas that are swollen or painful to touch may indicate infection.
