If you and your partner are planning a
pregnancy, then the health of your sperm is very
important. However, you need to understand the
various factors that can affect male fertility, and
that’s why you need to consider the following
steps in order to help your sperm become top
performers.
1. Do not have unprotected sex. Sexually-
transmitted diseases, such as gonorrhoea
and Chlamydia, can damage the sperm-
producing cells that block the tubes
carrying sperm from the testis to the
penis.
2. Avoid pesticides that control pests in the
garden and on the farm. Such chemicals
can damage the sperm-reproducing
organs.
3. Avoid insecticides that are usually
sprayed to kill mosquito. Such chemicals
can damage the sperm-reproducing
organs. Therefore, if you must spray
your room against mosquitoes, allow at
least one hour before going back into
the room.
4. Avoid exposure to lead fumes generated
in the manufacture of small cell batteries
and in bullets. Such fumes can reduce
sperm count through their negative
effects on the hormones and the testis.
5. Avoid exposure to heavy metals like
cadmium from the manufacture of heavy
batteries, as they negatively affect the
hormones.
6. Avoid exposure to paint fumes and
plastic softening chemicals like
phthalates; hydrocarbons such as
ethylbenze, benzene, toluene and
xylene, as they destroy the sperm-
producing cells and hormones.
7. Minimise exposure to electromagnetic
radiation, as the sperm germ cells are
very easily damaged by the gamma rays.
8. Minimise exposure to radiation, as the
sperm germ cells are very easily damaged
by radiation.
9. Avoid fumes generated by welders and
iron smelters, as their heat can affect
sperm production and lead to low sperm
count.
10. Avoid exposure to accumulated old
newsprints, as the carbon can lead to
low sperm count.
11. Avoid wearing tight pants and trousers,
as the heat generated can cause low
sperm count.
12. Avoid children with mumps, as having
mumps in childhood can cause irreversible
damage to the testis. Therefore, never
allow a male to visit other children that
have mumps.
13. Minimise your consumption of alcohol, as
drinking to excess can cause low sperm
count and also reduce libido, causing you
to have a low sex drive.
14. Do not smoke, as cigarette smoking can
damage the testis and lower the sperm
count, lower the ability of sperm to
move and lower the lifespan of the
sperm.
15. Do not eat too much saturated fat, as
they reduce the efficiency of the
hormones and enzymes that help in the
sperm production process.
16. Do not eat food or supplements with
soya beans, as soya beans convert to
the female hormone oestrogen, which
tends to neutralise the male hormone
testosterone, which is needed for men to
reproduce sperm.
17. Minimise your intake of refined
carbohydrate such as white flour, white
bread and white rice, as they reduce
the efficiency of the hormones and
enzymes that help in the sperm
reproduction process. Instead, eat more
of the unrefined carbohydrate such as
brown rice, wheat bread and oats.
18. Do not become constipated, as this can
obstruct blood flow to the testis.
Therefore, eat more dietary fibre.
19. Do not eat a poor diet, as this affects
the quality of the sperm. Instead, eat
more whole grains, vegetables and fruits.
20. Do not take artificial sweeteners such
as nutrasweet, candarell and sweetex, as
they reduce sperm count.
21. Avoid excessive consumption of raw
lemon, as this may inhibit the enzymes
responsible for sperm production and
libido.
22. Do seek immediate medical help if one
or both of the testes are un-descended
from the abdominal cavity into the
scrotal sac, as this can significantly
reduce sperm production.
23. Do not sit for long periods of time in
one position if you are a long distance
driver, drive a small sport car, or a chief
executive having many board meetings in
leather chairs, as this can increase the
temperature around the scrotum which
can reduce sperm count.
24. Avoid traumatic injury around the testes,
as this can damage the sperm-producing
cells.
25. Avoid bicycling, as this can damage the
tube carrying the sperm.
26. Avoid stress, as this can decrease the
sperm count and lead to production of
abnormal sperms.
27. Avoid obesity, as this can reduce blood
flow to the testes, making the sperm
production process more difficult and
significantly reduce libido.
28. Avoid substance abuse like cocaine or
heavy marijuana use, as this can lead to
low sperm count and deformed sperms.
29. Avoid poor nutrition, as this affects the
quality of the sperm.
30. Do not have children at a late age, as
the quality of the sperm decreases with
age, leading to more difficult conception
and greater possibility of having children
with deformities.

A word is enough...

Sperm! Not because it's sperm but because I wanna book space.
