Sperm Killer Factors That Can Cause Infertility In A Man! by megajay1(m): 3:24am On Sep 09, 2013
A man produces millions of sperm everyday.
While a woman releases 300-400 eggs during
their lifetime. Some factors can affect the health
of these little swimmers. sperm cells take about
75 days to grow to maturity, harming them can
affect your fertility
These factors includes,
-Overheating-
the testes needs a cool place so as to function
properly. That was why God kept away from the
inside of our hot body. When the temperature of
the testicles raises to about 90-98 degrees, sperm
production seizes and that will affect the sperms
for months
Exposure to high temperature will lower the
number of sperms and also the shape and
motility of the sperm cells.
-Fever-
A high fever can have the same effect as over
heating on a man’s sperm—with the same lasting
effects.
And depending on the timing in the sperm
production process, sperm concentration can
decrease by up to 35% following a fever
Laptops.
Another cause is the laptop computers that
continues to grow more rampant day after day.
Can a laptop computer really affect a mans
ability to reproduce? According to researchers,
laptops increases scrotum temperature; to an
extent that can affect the normal production of
sperm cells(spermatogenesis); in that case, desist
from keeping your laptop on your lapse.
-Tight pants-
Although most men now prefer wearing boxers
instead of pants.
The different between the both of them is space,
most pants are so tight that one can't feel
comfortable in them and the more constricted
your pants are, the less hospitable an environment
it
creates for sperm production.
-Varicose veins(swollen or dilated veins)-
13% of the male's population have varicose veins
in the scrotum, usually in
the left testicle. When a man is experiencing a low
sperm count, doctors may recommend varicocele
repair, by either surgically or by procedure that
repairs enlarged varicose
veins in the scrotum surgically or by percutaneous
embolization a nonsurgical
procedure using a catheter.
a varicocele may interfer
with sperm production by interrupting blood flow,
overheating the scrotum, or causing blood to back
up in the veins supplying blood to the testes.
Doctors believe the surgery may improve semen
quality.
-Cell phones-
The cell phones are another big factor that can
impair the normal production of sperm cells
reproductive organs varies; A 2008 study found
that men that make use of their phones for more
than four hours per day had
significantly lower sperm counts, motility rates,
and morphology (normal shapes),
Due to the effect of radiation it produces which
are harmful to the process of sperm cell
production (morphogenesis) to limit radiation
exposure, men are being adviced to carry their
phones in smal leather pouch instead of putting it
inside their pocket.
-Drugs,alcohol and smoking-
Tobacco, alcohol, and marijuana can impair
sexual function
Alcohol abuse affects semen quality
and production, while cigarette smoking impairs
sperm’s motility, according to a 2010 study .
In addition to slowing sperm down, other studies
show that cigarette smoking can damage sperm
DNA and increase malfunctioning of the erectile
ability.
Marijuana isn’t safe either as it causes reduce
sperm count, sperm function, and
overall male fertility.
More trouble for sperm
According to Dr. Potter, some physiological
situations that could negatively affect sperm
include:
Blockages . “Whether it’s caused by a birth defect,
infection, trauma, or vasectomy, a blockage
prevents the sperm from entering the semen.
Genetic disorders Chromosome abnormalities can
cause severely diminished or no sperm
production
one form of cystic fibrosis can cause the vas
deferens
not to form.
Other detrimental factors .
Anti-sperm antibodies,
hormonal imbalance, testicular cancer,
undescended testicles, and sexual problems can
affect sperm.
