European survey data show that compared with 20 years ago, men's sperm motility is only half of the past. Environmental pollution, climate change, work pressure, eating more and exercising less... These issues all make infertility a problem for modern people. As the other half of creating life, men should also be prepared for pregnancy at all times.
1、 Try to be a father in prime - sperm also has age issues
The usual view is that a woman becomes an elderly pregnant woman as soon as she reaches the age of 35, while a man can give birth until the age of 40, 50, 60, or 70. However, recent studies have shown that the older a man is, the more DNA their sperm breaks, leading to a greater chance of infertility, miscarriage, and congenital defects. Aging and damaged sperm of elderly fathers may bring many diseases to their offspring. Some studies in Israel, Europe, and the United States have shown that one-third of patients with schizophrenia are associated with their father's advanced age, and men over 40 are six times more likely to have children with autism than men under 30. There are also some studies that show that the risk of children suffering from breast cancer and prostate cancer increases with the father's childbearing age.
So, men can't help but procrastinate without limits, and they also need to plan well and strive to have children at the peak age of fertility on both sides.
2、 His lifestyle is equally important for a woman's fertility
In order to create healthy and high-quality offspring, women live cautiously, while men continue their lives with tobacco, alcohol, and coffee as companions, regardless of their own interests. Experts say that age is not the only factor determining sperm quality. A man in his 20s who smokes, drinks, stays up late, is obese, never exercises or eats junk food. Compared with a man in his 40s who has always had a healthy lifestyle, the sperm quality of the latter may be higher. The body of a man is the factory for sperm production, and the overall quality of the factory ensures the quality of the products, thereby ensuring that half of our offspring have high-quality genes. Overall, any factors that can harm his physical health can harm his sperm quality and potentially affect our fertility, such as stress, obesity, medication, alcohol, cigarettes, pesticides, lead, mercury, radiation, unhealthy diet, and so on.
