Hello, I want to find out when the quality of male sperm is the best. There are different opinions online, some say seven days, others say half a month. If I want to have a boy, how many days should I 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 say acidic, others say alkaline.Doctor's answer:
The best time for male sperm quality is when abstaining from ejaculation for 5-7 days. You can adjust the timing based on your situation. It is recommended to improve sperm quality before abstaining. Supplement with protein, zinc, and selenium, and consume foods rich 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.
