7 Habits That Could Lead To Infertility In Men by iRepFactmart: 7:28am On Mar 05, 2013
Infertility simply means the inability of an individual
to biological contribute to conception, in many
cultures inability to conceive bears a stigma. In
closed social groups, a degree of rejection may cause
some form of anxiety and depression, some respond
by actively avoiding the issue altogether, middle
class men are the most likely to respond in this way.
Some certain bad habits amongst men have been
found to lead to infertility; below are eight common
habits that could lead to infertility in men
v Wearing tight jeans: Because of the current trend
in fashion, most men wear fashionably tight jeans
called skinnies, this new fashion trend has been
found to be detrimental to virility amongst men
because they cage the scrotum and invite genital
tract inflammation. They also restrain blood
circulation, which is not good for sperm production
v Smoking :This also very common amongst men of
reproductive age is another detrimental factor,
recent health studies have shown that smoking 10
cigarettes a day could destroy 25% of sperm cells
produced weekly. Marijuana has also been found to
be a major cause of low sperm count and
azoospermia
v Sleeping around: This trend has dated back to
creation and is very common amongst younger men;
studies have shown that the number of sexual
partners you are exposed to determines the
probability of you contacting an STI (sexually
transmitted infection). Some STIs have been found to
cause blockage of the genital tract in men and also
damage of the testis, If you must sleep around
always use a condom
v Frequent hot baths: This might be a little surprising
but studies have shown that for proper
spermatogenesis to occur the scrotum sac housing
the testis must be at a temperature of 1-2 degrees
Celsius below the normal body temperature, which
indicates that males should spend less time soaking
in overly hot water.
v Watch your weight: obesity increases the risk of
hypogonadism thus leading to testicular failure
which simply means that the fatter you become the
lesser gonadotropin releasing hormone is released
into your blood stream. This hormone is responsible
for the release of other hormones responsible for
optimal testicular function.
v Keeping your cell phone in your trouser pocket:
most men are accustomed to putting their phones in
their trouser pockets. Bad idea, our phones emit
electromagnetic radiations which when placed in
close proximity to the scrotum may lower your sperm
count. Keep it in your hand or leave it on the table.
v Prolonged sitting down: leads to poor blood supply
to the pelvic cavity which in turn leads to poor
testicular oxygenation thus leading to poor
maturation of sperm cells and reduce mobility of
sperm cells.
