In medicine, male infertility usually refers to couples who cohabit for more than a year after marriage, have normal sexual activity, have not taken any contraceptive measures, and are unable to conceive due to male reasons.
With the transformation of people's lifestyles, the natural thing of "having children" seems to be becoming increasingly difficult. Before getting pregnant, women usually do a lot of preparation, while men seem to just need to "exert their strength" according to time. In fact, men should also prepare for pregnancy early.
Firstly, keep your mouth shut and step out of your way. Starting smoking cessation 3-6 months ago, limiting alcohol consumption, and ensuring sperm quality. Fasting on cottonseed oil, as gossypol can damage germ cells and cause infertility; Eat more vegetables and supplement with sufficient vitamins; Eat oysters and other seafood every week to supplement with sufficient amounts of zinc and other trace elements; Do aerobic exercise every week, but do not ride bicycles for long periods of time.
Secondly, it is important to grasp the optimal age for childbirth. Young people nowadays find it difficult to stand at thirty. In big cities such as Beijing and Shanghai, young people are getting married increasingly late, making it difficult to have children before the age of 30, and there are many patients in their 40s. Little did they know that age is the natural enemy of fertility. In order to ensure the quality of sperm, it is best to complete fertility before the age of 30, and no later than the age of 35.
Finally, perform a semen test. The new marriage registration regulations have abolished marriage examinations, but it is strongly recommended that men undergo corresponding examinations before pregnancy. Male semen analysis is a mandatory item, which can directly reflect male fertility and determine whether treatment is needed and the time required for treatment.
5 factors reduce sperm motility
1. Fast food
With the accelerated pace of modern life, more and more men have joined the fast food team to save time. Fast food contains a lot of soy products. But soybeans contain a hormone similar to estrogen, and if the intake of this hormone is relatively high, it will have some estrogenic effects, which can trigger male reproductive problems.
2. Driving
The development of modern transportation has made cars a manifestation of male identity. Italian researchers have found that taxi drivers, professional drivers, and truck drivers have the most significant decline in reproductive ability. Driving continuously for more than 2 hours can damage the quality of male sperm. When driving, men should drive for one hour to leave the car and move around for ten minutes.
