Improving Sperm Quality

Few men agree that the problem of infertility lies in his health. Usually the strong half blames women for all the problems. Healthy sperm is needed to conceive. Before getting pregnant, parents-to-be should be screened, including men.



Factors of competitiveness of healthy sperm cells


For the conception of healthy offspring, men must have active and full sperm. In medical parlance, this sounds like healthy fertility.


Sperm competitiveness depends on various factors:



  • physiology;
  • a healthy diet;
  • a calm lifestyle, excluding stress and depression;
  • favorable ecology.

Recently, the weakness of male functionality is manifested more and more in men of reproductive age. Due to poor fertility, medicine began to look for solutions - this is how in vitro fertilization appeared. It is often used by men with low semen quality.


Without resorting to the extremes of medical services, men can improve sperm on their own. To do this, you should adhere to simple recommendations.



Adverse effects on sperm quality


Recent medical research shows that the quality of male semen has deteriorated by an order of magnitude over the past decades. Abnormalities are noted in morphology and mobility.


What affects sperm quality?



  • diseases of the urinary and reproductive system;
  • hormonal imbalance (increased levels of estrogen and prolactin, decreased levels of the male hormone - testosterone);
  • addiction to alcoholic beverages, smoking, drugs;
  • depression, stress;
  • uncontrolled sex life (abstinence is as harmful as frequent ejaculation);
  • frequent visits to the bathhouse, sauna;
  • wearing tight underwear, has a detrimental effect on the semen count;
  • spermatozoa have a low quality of morphology in men who work in hazardous industries (toxic substances, heavy metals, harmful components);
  • unhealthy foods (fats, vitamin deficiencies);
  • a sedentary lifestyle contributes to the disruption of blood supply to organs in the small pelvis;
  • medications - taking antidepressants, steroids, antibiotics, antihistamines;

Successful conception is possible if the seminal fluid contains from 12 to 16 million active tadpoles with regular shapes (sperm). Even a slight deviation from the norm contributes to the deterioration of male fertility.


Eliminating harmful factors improves sperm counts.



Permissible ejaculant rates


How does consistency affect semen quality? Semen indicators are the permissible rates of viscosity, color and density. The seminal fluid should be viscous and thick, after a few minutes of drying, it becomes dense, after which it begins to liquefy (this is very important). The liquefied semen is visible when it flows out of the condom or vagina.


The male semen liquefies in 45-60 minutes, if after this time the liquid does not become watery, this is a signal to visit the hospital. What does excessive seed density indicate? An increase in semen density can affect the speed of sperm movement, sometimes infertility is diagnosed in such cases.


Sperm quality is measured by the viscosity of the semen. If the consistency is too thick, pathologies with the prostate (advanced course), enzyme deficiency or vesiculitis can be detected. The negative effects of the alleged diseases reduce the quality of the semen. Conception may not happen.



Effect of semen color


The appearance of the sperm of a healthy man is whitish-transparent. In the presence of extraneous shades, the presence of pathological processes is possible.



  • a clear, watery composition may warn of severe dehydration or low sperm count (complete infertility);
  • a yellowish tint indicates a man's good health, and a more saturated color warns of increased acidity, the presence of infection in the reproductive or urinary system;
  • green semen occurs in men with severe infection, chronic prostatitis, orchitis, vesiculitis, epididymitis, an unpleasant odor of semen warns of a venereal disease);
  • pinkish semen is the worst option. The presence of plasma in semen or some veins increases the risk of a tumor or open wound;
  • a brown tint warns of inflammation of the testicles, channels for excretion of semen, testes;
  • a brown tint occurs in cases of advanced adenoma or complicated prostatitis.


Semen homogeneity


A healthy ejaculant has a white-gray tint, moderate viscosity and density, uniform consistency.If there is no uniformity, the sperm looks like semolina with lumps, this indicates agglutination. In this state, the sperm are glued together, they cannot participate in the fertilization of the egg.


Inhomogeneity manifests itself in possible inflammatory processes of the gonads, or pathologies of the immunity of the chronic course. The structure can be altered by hormonal disruptions.



Improving semen quality


How to improve sperm quality? For this, provoking, negative factors are excluded. Sperm cells mature in 3-4 months.


At this time, some guidelines will help:



  • Setting the allowed temperature for maturation of tadpoles. Excludes trips to saunas, baths, it is not allowed to get sick with viral, colds with fever, refuse to wear tight underwear and trousers (harmful to the testicles).
  • Improving male sperm consists in giving up alcohol addiction, smoking, and taking drugs. The action of the decay products changes the composition of chromosomes with the structure of sperm. As a result, the sperm cells are not able to fertilize the egg or the pregnancy that has taken place will not develop properly.
  • To improve sperm quality, men should not be overweight. Obesity is not possible with regular exercise, as exercise increases testosterone and stimulates blood circulation in the prostate gland. The use of regular exercise can increase sperm motility (semen contains a third of the prostate juice, which is necessary to activate the semen).
  • Possible stress, tension, depression should be excluded. Under stressful situations, cortisol (a hormone) is produced, which reduces the amount of the male hormone, which means it impairs the quality of the semen.
  • To get a healthy spermogram it is necessary to exclude inflammation processes.
  • Good nutrition for a man is an important factor for healthy semen.

Men's diet should be supplemented with zinc and selenium - these are essential elements for men's health.



Traditional medicine


There are many recommendations for improving semen, including medication. The drugs are prescribed by a specialist, the admission is carried out under regular examination with the collection of anamnesis. This is necessary in order not to overdo it with treatment (completely dilute the sperm and bring it to a strong density), especially in cases where hormone therapy is prescribed.


There are many recipes for improving the composition of semen, which can be prepared at home using this folk method


How to improve sperm quality at home? Traditional medicine is a fairly effective technique. Some recipes help stop inflammation, increase the mobility of the semen, and cure male infertility. Other folk methods enrich the body with vitamins, amino acids. When combined with traditional and non-traditional methods, it accelerates the long-awaited performance.

How to improve the quality of spermogram with nutrition? Sperm morphology and motility are improved by healthy nutrition. A man should give up fats, animal origin, add more vegetables and fruits to the diet.


There is a list of products that improve spermatogenesis:



  • non-fatty meats (protein is essential for building cells);
  • marine products fish - protein, vitamins, zinc, omega3 are involved in the production of testosterone (necessary for sperm motility);
  • the liver is a storehouse of vitamins A, E necessary to improve spermatogenesis;
  • nuts (walnuts) - in the composition of arginine, selenium, zinc;
  • citrus and kiwi - vitamin C;
  • bananas - magnesium;
  • dates - folic acid, vitamin C, B;
  • honey products and gifts of beekeeping - a complex of vitamins, macro-micro-elements;
