By Elena Ognivtseva

As with all men, you and I have our particular concerns with matters regarding pregnancy and childbirth and so, we ought to be very mindful of our being fertile. There are a number of guidelines, which are very basic, that we ought to follow. These would include passing up on hot baths and showers, drinking less alcohol, eating less junk food, and having a proper diet. Even smoking can cause sperm count to shrink. Just one stick of cigarette and more than four thousand chemicals are released into your body – with four hundred of these deemed very poisonous. For sure, you would not want these on your sperm and, ultimately, your child.

Avoid sitting down on the same place too long and be careful not to overdo it when having your workout. Things like these could heat up your testicles, which may decrease mobility of the sperm. Even driving long distances could affect the quality of the sperm. The scrotum helps protect the testicles from unstable temperatures, making the appropriate increase or decrease of their count, based on external temperatures. This is why a hot bath is discouraged.

The Boxers Are The First Step

Wear loose boxers for they help maintain a relaxed temperature in your groin area. If you are a heavy laptop user, avoid having it positioned on the groin area while working on it for long periods as well because the heat may affect the volume and quality of your sperm.

Doctors suggest taking multivitamins to help increase the volume of semen and to augment deficiencies in your diet. There are a number of pills you can choose from, but be advised to first consult a doctor because such pills may have serious effects on semen quality. You should also take precautions when using lubricants during intercourse. Many of these lubricants are spermicidal, which means the have ingredients that can very well kill your sperms. If you have to, make sure you pick one that is non-spermicidal.

Keep It Cool And Nice

Love may be all over, and lovemaking is very basic in terms of human instinct, but everything should be made in moderation. Do not overdo sex, as it may dramatically reduce semen quality. Sex once in a day or maybe every other day may be enough to satiate your desires.

There are actually several websites that seriously discuss issues, such as male fertility, sperm mobility, and the increase or decrease in sperm count. Fertility and childbirth are not just issues that women take seriously. It is also true with men, since about forty percent of cases of fertility problems trace their origins to the male partner.
