Patient's question:
Hello, I want to find out when the quality of male sperm is the best. There are different opinions online, some say seven days, and some say half a month. If I want to have a boy, how many days should the man abstain from sex for the best sperm quality? Also, the woman needs to eat alkaline foods. Should the man eat alkaline foods or acidic foods? Some sources say acidic, while others say alkaline.Doctor's answer:
The best time for male sperm quality is when abstaining from sex for 5-7 days. You can control the timing based on your situation. It is recommended to improve sperm quality before abstaining. Supplement with protein, zinc, and selenium, and consume foods high in these nutrients, such as milk, yogurt, and other dairy products; tofu, soy milk, and other soy products; as well as seafood like shrimp skin and kelp. Taking Youzhiyuan chewable tablets to supplement zinc, selenium, and protein will yield better results. Additionally, exercise regularly and avoid sitting for long periods.
