Fertility - Improving Sperm Count Naturally
"After two years of trying for a baby, we've finally discovered that I’m okay but my husband has a low sperm count.
Is there anything natural we can do to improve our chances?"
This is the answer:
Don't let your husband wear tight jeans or Y-fronts - baggy trousers and boxer shorts are best.
Hot baths are out, especially just before bedtime.
Even small amounts of alcohol damage sperm, so he's better off without any for four months.
Give him lots of foods rich in zinc and vitamin E - pumpkin seeds, avocadoes, olive oil, seafood and oily fish. A daily dose of zinc and vitamin E should be added too.
American scientists found that a surprisingly high number , around 20% , of men with low sperm counts had suffered an injury to their testicles. Most of them happened when playing contact sports during adolescence so maybe the rugby scrum is not the safest place for would-be fathers.
The old wives tale says not to do it too often, but the good news is that a regular sex life encourages the generation of more sperm. Anyway, practice makes perfect!
