Title: Male Infertility


1
How to Prevent Infertility in Males?

2
Most important male factor that contributes to
infertility are
  • Problem with the quality of the semen.
  • Some men have a low sperm count.
  • Some have sperms which do not swim actively, and
    in a forward motion (sperm motility).
  • While in some, the sperms may be in bad shape
    (sperm morphology).
  • Problems with the seminal fluid too.
  • Problems with Sperm delivery.

Points to remember to increase the chances of
conception
  • Avoid lifestyle choices that can compromise your
    fertility.
  • Avoid smoking - it has effects on both sperm
    count and motility.
  • Avoid alcohol - habitual alcohol intake can
    damage semen quality.
  • Stop using recreational drugs - marijuana and
    other recreational drugs could damage your
    fertility potential.
  • Stay away from steroids - anabolic steroids cause
    testicular shrinkage and infertility.
  • Think twice about vigorous exercise - It is
    associated with an increase in a hormone called
    prolactin, which can diminish sperm production.

If you are trying for pregnancy, keep these
points in mind, to increase your chances of
conception
  • Avoid anything that increases scrotal temperature
    such as tight underwear, hot sauna baths, etc.
  • Minimize your exposure to environmental toxins
    such as pesticides, lead, paint, radiation,
    radioactive substances, mercury, boron, benzene,
    etc.
  • Get tested for symptoms of malnutrition, anemia,
    vitamin and mineral deficiencies and take
    treatment to rectify them.
  • Avoid high levels of physical and mental stress -
    practice relaxation and breathing exercises to
    stay cool.

5
Conclusion
  • Making changes to your lifestyle incorporating
    nutritious diet, and stress-free functioning
    could greatly improve your chances of better
    quality semen. These measures, however, do not
    substitute medical treatment, but would greatly
    supplement it.
