Patient's question:
Hello, I want to ask how it is possible to improve sperm quality? Recently, I watched "Where Are We Going, Dad?" and the children in it are so cute. It seems like having one, but before the New Year, we went for a check-up and the doctor said my husband has developed low sperm vitality, which has led to a decline in fertility. So far, we haven't been able to conceive. What should we do? How can we improve sperm quality?Doctor's answer:
Hello, don't worry about your situation. It only takes 4 months for sperm to mature, and improving sperm quality and quantity can be effectively achieved by changing bad lifestyle habits.1. Engage in more exercise. Research shows that excessive obesity in men can raise the temperature in the groin area, damaging sperm development and leading to infertility. Therefore, maintaining a standard weight can improve sperm quality. However, the intensity of exercise should be moderate to avoid strenuous activity.
2. Avoid frequent visits to saunas and steam baths. High temperatures from steam baths directly harm sperm and suppress sperm production.
3. Quit smoking and drinking. Smoking and alcohol consumption are the main factors contributing to a decline in sperm count, so it is essential to quit.
4. Relax your mind. Excessive stress also has a negative impact on sperm development.
5. Don’t keep your phone in your pocket often. Placing a phone in a trouser pocket can raise scrotal temperature, harming sperm.
6. Eat more green vegetables. Green vegetables contain nutrients like vitamin C, vitamin E, zinc, and selenium, which are beneficial for sperm development.
7. Consider a "spermatogenesis cytology analysis." Its advantage lies in its ability to analyze the "spermatogenic cells" (sperm develops from spermatogenic cells) in terms of "quantity, proportion, and morphology." This helps identify harmful factors causing testicular spermatogenesis disorders (e.g., testicular inflammation, testicular infection, varicocele, sexual dysfunction, etc.), thereby providing the most accurate basis for clinical treatment currently available.
