After many male friends suffer from male infertility, they will go to the hospital for a formal examination. After the examination, everyone will find a common point, which is that many of your patients suffer from infertility because of problems with their semen. Therefore, let me talk about how men should protect their sperm.
1. Participate in more physical exercise. Research has shown that excessive obesity in men can lead to an increase in temperature in the groin, damage the growth of sperm, and ultimately lead to infertility.
2. Avoid going to the sauna and steam room. High temperature steam bath directly damages sperm and also inhibits sperm production.
3. Eating should be rich and diverse: Men who have a single, partial, or picky diet and do not like to eat animal foods can have a decrease in zinc content over time, leading to decreased libido and sexual function, a 30% decrease in sperm count, and even loss of fertility.
4. Do not smoke or drink: Smoking and alcohol are great enemies of sperm. Nicotine in cigarettes can reduce sex hormone secretion and kill sperm. If adult men smoke 30 cigarettes a day, the survival rate of sperm is only 49%, and the rate of sperm deformity increases; Long term heavy drinking can cause chronic or acute alcoholism in the human body, which can cause 70% of sperm to develop poorly or lose vitality.
5. The best pattern of sexual activity is neither too much nor too little: excessive sexual activity can lead to impotence and reduce the amount of sperm contained in each ejaculation, thereby reducing the chances of conception.
6. Relax your mindset. Excessive mental stress can also have a negative impact on sperm growth. So men should do things that can help them relax, such as walking, bathing, etc., before enjoying sex.
7. Eat more green vegetables. Green vegetables contain ingredients such as vitamin C, vitamin E, zinc, and selenium that are beneficial for sperm growth. Nuts and fish are rich in Omega-3 fatty acids, and should also be eaten more to promote sperm cell growth.
