When there is a known cause of infertility, problems in the male partner tend to account for about 40 percent of infertile couples.

one of the problems he sees is that when couples become so fertility focused, they essentially stop having sex until they think it's the best times to conceive. "Their sex lives become focused on pregnancy, so infrequent sex can be a problem in these couples,"

Which nutrients are most important?


Your diet should be every bit as balanced, varied, and nutritious as your partner's .

According to the American Society for Reproductive Medicine, research shows that a healthy diet including plenty of fish, vegetables, and whole grains means more active sperm. On the other hand, a diet high in trans fats may lower the number of sperm in semen.

Some specific advice for future dads:

Eat plenty of foods rich in vitamin C and other antioxidants. These nutrients help prevent sperm defects and boost motility (movement). An 8-ounce glass of orange juice has about 124 milligrams (mg) of vitamin C. Aim to get at least 90 mg a day – more if you smoke (at least 125 mg).

Get enough zinc. A lack of zinc can make sperm clump together and contribute to infertility. Great sources to help you get the 11 mg you need daily include oysters (16 mg in six medium oysters), extra-lean beef tenderloin (4.8 mg per 3-ounce serving), baked beans (3.5 mg per 1-cup serving), and dark chicken meat (2.38 mg per 3-ounce serving).

Fuel up on folic acid. Studies suggest that men with low levels of this key B vitamin – the same one women need to reduce the baby's risk of neural tube birth defects – have trouble producing healthy sperm. You may be able to get the daily minimum of 400 micrograms from fortified breakfast cereals, leafy greens, legumes, and orange juice, but taking a folic acid or a multivitamin supplement for extra insurance can't hurt.
Cut out (or cut back on) alcohol. An occasional drink is generally considered safe, but studies show that drinking wine, beer, or hard liquor daily can reduce testosterone levels and sperm counts and raise the number of abnormal sperm in your ejaculate.
Take a multivitamin tablet every day. A pill is no substitute for a healthy diet, but a multivitamin can help you make sure you're getting the nutrients you need.

Nutrition has a direct impact on the potency of your sperm. Research shows that having a poor diet and drinking alcohol regularly, for instance, can lower the quality and quantity of sperm and make conception more difficult. And since infertility is nearly as much a man's issue as a woman's – about a third of fertility problems can be traced to men – eating healthfully now can boost your chances of conceiving a child.
Additional research shows that dads who are heavy drinkers risk damaging their sperm. If you drink, have no more than one or two drinks a day.
FamilyRe: Men Only- Trying To Conceive (TTC) Thread: Share Ideas, Advice E.t.c by pinkp(op): 10:56pm On Jul 26, 2017
Let your doctor know about everything you're taking, whether it's prescribed or over-the-counter. Certain medications can affect either the quality or quantity of sperm and cause male fertility problems. Such drugs include:
Any steroid or hormone, particularly testosterone
Some high blood pressure drugs
A few antibiotics
Some medications used to treat diseases like fungal infections, ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease, peptic ulcers, and seizures
In most cases, the effect is reversible once you go off the drugs. Talk to your doctor about your plans to become a dad, and find out if you can safely switch to a different medication.
Anabolic steroids, which bodybuilders use to bulk up, are well studied, and evidence shows they can reduce sperm count and shrink the testicles. Though herbs and supplements may seem harmless, your doctor is the best person to decide whether they could interfere with your ability to father a child.
Finally, ask your doctor about any hazards you may be exposed to on the job or elsewhere. Exposure to pesticides, heavy metals, and organic solvents, for example, can affect the quality and quantity of your sperm.
FamilyRe: Men Only- Trying To Conceive (TTC) Thread: Share Ideas, Advice E.t.c by pinkp(op): 10:54pm On Jul 26, 2017
Make an appointment to see your doctor, especially if you have a chronic disease, take any medication, or experience problems with erections, ejaculation, or loss of libido.
It's a good idea to have a complete physical exam so your doctor can check for conditions that may affect fertility. Some conditions to watch out for include:
Varicoceles, which are enlarged veins on the scrotum (the skin covering the testicles). Varicoceles prevent the testicles from cooling normally, and doctors think that may lead to fewer, misshapen, or less mobile sperm. Although varicoceles are usually harmless, and no one knows exactly how they're related to infertility, 40 percent of men with fertility problems also have varicoceles. The condition is treatable, so talk to your doctor about the options.
Sexually transmitted infections (STI), which may cause male infertility. Your doctor can test you and give you the right treatment if necessary.
Prostatitis (inflammation of the prostate) or mumps (which may result in swollen testicles) may lead to infertility. Your primary care doctor can refer you to a urologist or a male fertility specialist if you need additional testing or treatments.

Are some sex positions better than others?


You may have heard that some positions, such as your partner on top (missionary position), are better than others for getting pregnant. In fact, there's no evidence to back these theories up. Experts just haven't done the research yet.
What experts have done, though, is use scanning to show what's going on inside when you're doing the deed. The research looked at two positions: the missionary position and doggy style. (Doggy style being when you're on all fours, and your partner enters you from behind).
Common sense tells us that these positions allow for deep penetration. This means that they're more likely to place sperm right next to your cervix (the opening of your uterus).
The scans confirm that the tip of the penis reaches the areas between the cervix and vaginal walls in both of these positions. The missionary position allows the penis to reach the area at the front of the cervix. The rear entry position reaches the area at back of the cervix.
It's amazing what some experts spend their time doing, isn't it! Other positions, such as standing up, or woman on top, may be just as good for getting sperm right next to the cervix. We just don't know yet.
So, in the meantime, enjoy some variety in your sex life and keep it fun while you're trying for a baby. And talk to others who are hoping to get pregnant by joining our Actively trying group.

I don't see anything wrong in what the poster did. Her bf too sees Nothing wrong there.
Her mother didn't force her or threatened her to go source money for her.
Possibly the mum was explaining to her there's no foodstuff at home and shes so broke, her creditors are not paying but always posting her.
Its possible. Some mothers do share such info with their children.

And what's the big deal about fixing Brazilian hair, when my mom possibly need some foodstuffs at home. Mehn! Bust hair jare!
My mum first, before hair.
She has the money at that time the mum called, and she chose to help her mom put. That shows shes a good daughter and not a stone cold hearted daughter, whether her mum starve or not, no consign her. Thats bad.

Or maybe the mum is ill?
So she will use money to fix hair, while her mum is ill and in need of drugs asap.

Abeg let's be humane for once!
Strangers or friends can ignore but not a child to his or her mum

Op u are a good child with conscience. Keep it up!

I can do so much more for my mum. Cause she was the only one who stood by me try thick and thin. She understood my dreams and even sold her one out or her two buildings to invest in my company. So I can do everything humanly possibly for her.
If not for my mum I would be trekking the whole Lagos looking for jobs and finally end up in one company owned by a pervert wey no dey take eyes see woman twice.. Smmhh angry


Babe! If u have? Assist yur mum when she asks. But don't go over board or steal or commit prostitution because of her. Simply help her financially if u have some money on u and God will bless u abundantly. Even her prayers will always protect and assist u in life.

Word!
God Bless U

[quote author=MissRaine69 post=58289796][/quote]My hair is long enough I don't wear a weave and the odd occasion when I have needed to style my hair a certain way and needed length I opt for tracks not a weave.

1. I neva asked u if u wear extensions, so no need to make it personal.
It's just an illustration of d story in reverse.
(no insult intended pls)

Even if you learnt how to do hair from childhood learning about scalp and good hair techiques elevates you from mediocre to expert. That's good business sense.

2. She started d training right from childhood, she grew up in it. Talking abou good biz sense, Combining her degree in marketing with her Pro skills in Beauty, she's got it convered .

[quote author=MissRaine69 post=58288735][/quote]Why could you not do your own hair before?

Ans- Read d topic again

This is where I require clarification. And also what if you did not have any money what would your mother have done since it was such an emergency?

Ans- Then there is no money. She gave it because she had it. Her bf didn't see anythin rong about it anyway.

.
Finally have you actually had any formal training in matters regarding hair care or you are just going to open a salon and hope for the best?

Ans- She was trained from childhood, that was how she could do her hair herself. Only a Pro could do dat

Okay let's reverse it- I was given money to do my hair and my mom needed money urgently. I told my mom dat I hav no money to giv her and I went to d saloon to fix on new Brazilian hair. Wat will u say to dat?
