Sperm count is the amount of sperm released per ejaculation. The average ejaculation of sperm reaches about 50 million. If you are a male and you release less than this amount, then you may be suffering from low sperm count and have less fertility. If your sperm is healthy about 50% is considered active and 25 percent of that is going in the same direction. Good sperm flow is very important so it is able to penetrate the egg.
What are the main causes of low sperm count and low fertility? The most common ones are listed below.
Stress
Stress leads to a lot of problems and unfortunately it can create a male to have a low sperm count. Both emotional and psychological stress can cause this to happen.
Excessive Heat Exposure
Excessive exposure to heat can cause a man to be less fertile. Taking a hot shower, bath, sauna, or even having your laptop on your lap for a long period of time can overheat the testicles and cause low sperm levels. Stay away from excessive heat.
Long Distance Driving
This could go under the stress category. Driving for a long time can cause a lot of stress and overheating that can decrease the sperm levels. When you drive you stress levels sky rocket whether you know it or not. Usually its never noticeable.
Bike Riding
Bike riding can cause numbing of the scrotum which can lower sperm count. It also increases temperature in the testicle area.
Not many men realize the importance of drinking water. Drinking water can help your sperm production a lot by flushing out unwanted testicles.
