Sperm count. Want to increase it?

Sperm health is an important factor in male fertility. The average total number of sperm present in one sample of sperm is referred to as the sperm count. Sperm densities in normal men range from 15 million to more than 200 million sperm per milliliter of sperm. According to the Mayo Clinic, you have a low sperm count if you have fewer than 15 million sperm per milliliter or less than 39 million sperm total per ejaculate.

Because men produce millions of new sperm every day, it is extremely beneficial to men who want to change their lifestyle habits. Sperm production takes an average of 74 days from start to finish, this means that men who make lifestyle changes will only have to wait three months before seeing improvements in sperm quality, increasing their chances of having a successful pregnancy. Here are some ideas for increasing sperm count:

1. Quit smoking, it can reduce sperm count.

2. Try aerobic exercises at least three 50-minute sessions a week.

3. Avoid certain prescription medications such as antibiotics.

4. Take a fenugreek supplement & vitamin D.

5. Eat more antioxidant-rich foods. Try blackberries!

6. Increase healthful fat intake. Try Omega-3 supplements!

7. Limit exposure to environmental & occupational contaminants.

8. Limit the consumption of soy & estrogen-rich foods such as Flax seeds.

9. Get enough folate and zinc.

10. Limit the consumption of processed meat.
