With the development of society, life is becoming more and more colorful, many bad habits have become the norm for young people, and health problems also come. Zhang has been married for almost 4 years, couples love, normal sex life, did not take any contraceptive measures, but has not been able to make his wife pregnant, many times to the hospital to check the female side of the reason has been ruled out, the main problem is that his own sperm count is too small, not enough vitality. Considering that he was busy at work and might be physically weak, his family made all kinds of tonic soups for him, but they were not effective, and every time he checked the sperm count and vitality, they were not up to standard. He has always been very puzzled, his body has always been good, can eat and sleep, the whole body checkup did not find any major problems, sexual function is also very normal, why the sperm is always not up to standard. 4 months ago, he grew a pustule next to the anus, the need for surgical incision to drain pus, in the family’s persuasion, he arranged the work to other colleagues, their own peace of mind cure, quit drinking, try not to use the computer Internet, while taking Chinese medicine treatment. After more than 2 months of recuperation, the results of the re-examination showed that his sperm indicators have significantly improved, and not long after, his wife is also pregnant. The family rejoiced. Originally, because of his work, he has been out for a long time, more socializing, almost every 2 days to drink, each time the amount of alcohol are more than half a catty, and each socializing to 12 o’clock in the evening before going home, feel very tired, go home to lie in bed, after a long time, naturally formed the habit of working in bed, every day after going home, in addition to dinner, the other time in bed through, and in addition to sleeping. Every day after coming home, in addition to eating, the other time is in bed, and in addition to sleeping time, have been doing “netizens”, at least 7-8 hours a day there is a laptop computer in his lap. It was this habit that affected his sperm. On the one hand, the ethanol contained in alcohol is harmful to the testicles, long-term excessive alcohol consumption can make the body synthesize androgens of the three enzyme activity is seriously affected, so that the testicles can not normally produce androgens and spermatozoa. Drinking an average of 250g of strong alcohol per day for 2~5 years may cause impotence, abnormal ejaculation function, and even abnormal sperm quality, resulting in infertility or pregnancy with a teratogen. On the other hand, long-term exposure to ionizing radiation and non-ionizing radiation will affect the production and function of spermatozoa. Zhang puts his laptop computer on his lap for a long time to surf the Internet, which will have a certain effect on the production and function of his spermatozoa, coupled with the long-term work of too much fatigue, which will inevitably lead to a decline in the quantity and quality of spermatozoa, thus resulting in infertility. In addition, the following factors can cause male infertility, should try to avoid: 1, caffeine Caffeine for spermatogenic cells is also a harmful substance, drink more than 4 cups of coffee a day will affect fertility, ready to “make a man” men should avoid drinking a lot. Similarly, do not drink caffeinated beverages such as cola and strong tea. 2, smoking a lot of smoking will increase the content of thiocyanic acid in the semen, can inhibit sperm activity, smokers semen in the number of deformed sperm are significantly higher than non-smokers. 3, high temperature in the scrotum The normal temperature of the scrotum is lower than the body temperature of 2 ~ 3 ℃, long time sitting work, long distance driver and like to wear tight pants, will make the scrotum part of the heat dissipation is affected by the local temperature rise, thus affecting the quantity and quality of sperm. You should get up or get out of the car regularly and try to wear loose pants. Some people have a high surface temperature of the scrotum, you can use cold water to apply the scrotum at night, in order to properly reduce the temperature of the scrotum, which is more conducive to the production of sperm. 4, drugs and chemical substances Some commonly used drugs, such as cimetidine, sulfasalazine, tretinoin, spironolactone, furotoxin, colchicine, a variety of hormone drugs and cancer chemotherapeutic drugs often lead to temporary or permanent damage to spermatogenesis, part of the anti-blood pressure drugs, sedatives and anesthesia medications have a certain impact on spermatozoa, and should be as little as possible to serve or not to take. Long-term exposure to cadmium, lead, zinc, silver, cobalt and other metal elements and cotton-phenol, diletto phenol and other chemicals will also lead to spermatogenesis disorders, should be avoided. 5, malnutrition Malnutrition will cause protein and vitamins, trace elements, so that the production of sperm, the ability to be affected, resulting in sperm quantity and quality of abnormalities, will also cause male infertility. Cholesterol, arginine and zinc are the nutrients most closely related to fertility. Cholesterol is an important raw material for the synthesis of sex hormones, and eating more liver, brain, intestines, tripe and other animal offal will be conducive to the synthesis of sex hormones. Arginine is a necessary component of sperm formation, it is the basic component of protein, so eat more protein-rich foods, such as lean meat, fish, eggs, milk, etc. will be conducive to fertility, especially more frozen tofu, tofu skin, walnuts, sesame seeds and other arginine-containing food is more conducive to spermatogenesis. Zinc is an important trace element in the human body, the lack of which can cause testicular atrophy, hypogonadism, food to oysters, beef, chicken liver, egg yolks and other zinc-containing most, such as regular zinc-containing medications, such as zinc sulfate, zinc gluconate and so on, can make the quality of semen improve. Vitamins A and E are essential nutrients for sperm production and should be taken as appropriate. 6, the frequency of inappropriate sexual intercourse If you have sexual intercourse once a day, the quality of semen will be reduced, every other day the quality of semen will be able to maintain normal. On the contrary, if the semen is not discharged for a long time, the sperm will be in the reproductive tract aging and loss of vitality, and swallowed by other cells. Therefore, usually do not deliberately restrain the demand for sexual life, and put your hopes on the day before the day of ovulation. Every 2-3 days sexual intercourse 1 time, you can make the sperm and egg combination of the chances of rising. 7, psychological factors Psychologically, we should be frank, not overly anxious, treat infertility with patience, adhere to the treatment. Because the testes need a process to make sperm, generally from the spermatogonia evolve into sperm about 74 days, sperm from the testes after discharge and in the epididymis after about 18 days of maturation process, to be discharged from the body. Therefore, even if the medication is effective, it will take 3 months before the effects become apparent. Therefore, the treatment of infertility is often 3 months for a course of treatment, and frequent changes in medication are detrimental to treatment. In addition, emotional instability can also cause spermatogenesis and sexual dysfunction. According to statistics, infertility caused by emotional disorders accounts for about 5% of the total infertile population, which shows the importance of stabilizing emotions and patient treatment. For men with poor sperm count and quality, most of them can achieve normal fertility as long as they can identify the causes of reduced sperm count or malformation, eliminate the relevant causative factors, and change all kinds of bad habits in their life, while at the same time adopting a combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine methods of treatment.
