Patient's question:
Doctor, hello. Today my husband had a routine semen analysis, and his sperm motility is low, with about 3% A and around 15% B. He had nocturnal emission two days ago. Does this affect the test results? Additionally, how can we improve sperm motility? Should he take any medication? And can we have children while taking medication?Doctor's answer:
How can sperm vitality be improved? Sperm vitality to some extent reflects a man's health level.1. Immediately quit smoking. Men who smoke more than one pack of cigarettes per day always have weaker sperm vitality compared to non-smokers. However, after quitting, it is important to avoid stress, as it can lower testosterone levels, leading to a decrease in sperm count.
2. Urinating at night is a good habit, as it benefits sperm production.
3. Fruits and vegetables rich in vitamin E and various trace elements can help resist bacteria that damage sperm. Therefore, it is recommended to consume more foods high in vitamin E and trace elements. Increasing vitamin E intake by 600 mg per day can enhance sperm vitality. The latest research shows that foods like fish products can double sperm count.
