It is the union of sperm and egg that opens up a new chapter and miracle of life. Although male pregnancy preparation is not as complicated as that of women, there are also a lot of things to consider. When it comes to the “golden age” of fertility, most people think of women, but in fact, men also have a “golden age” of fertility. Generally speaking, when you are 20 to 40 years old, the male body functions relatively well and the sperm quality is high, so it is best to have children before the age of 35. The growth cycle of sperm is more than 70 days, so it is recommended to start preparing for pregnancy 3 to 6 months in advance. However, strictly speaking, the preparation for pregnancy should start from childhood. A couple with good lifestyle habits and good health will have a healthier child. The first thing a couple should do when they have a “baby-making plan” is to have a medical checkup. This is because pre-conception screening is the best practice to ensure a healthy baby. For men, they should focus on three key elements: 1. the overall health of the body, such as liver and kidney function is normal, whether there is hypertension, etc.; 2. the health of the reproductive system. Human growth and development, reproductive processes are regulated by the hypothalamus – pituitary – gonadal axis, and the examination of reproductive endocrine and semen is an important reference for male pregnancy preparation; 3. the presence of People with tuberculosis, hepatitis B infectious diseases, etc. should also go for appropriate special examinations to see if they are suitable for pregnancy at this time. People with a history of genetic diseases should also see a professional doctor to see if they are suitable for having offspring. Therefore, before preparing for pregnancy, it is not just a matter of checking the semen to see the sperm count and sperm vitality, but also a more detailed understanding of our health status. There is also a relationship between stress and sperm quality. A study in the United States found that the more stressed men are, the worse their sperm quality is. A new study published in the American Journal of Fertility and Sterility found that stress can negatively affect male sperm quality. The more stressed a man is, the worse his sperm quality is. Possible reasons for poor sperm quality due to stress include stress-inducing oxidative stress hormones and glucocorticoids (also known as “adrenocorticotropic hormones”), which may affect poor sperm and testosterone production. Excessive stress can affect the motility, shape and concentration of sperm. Men should quit the four major vices that hurt sperm 1, often wear tight clothes and pants tight pants will lead to male genitalia for a long time in an impermeable state, continuously keep high temperature, high temperature will make sperm loss of vitality, seriously affect the quality of sperm, which is a fatal blow to sperm. 2, long time riding a bicycle male friends in cycling stool if too narrow, will cause heavy pressure on the pubic testicles and prostate, long time squeeze may cause ischemia and edema phenomenon, affect sperm production, and may also lead to the occurrence of prostatitis. The actual fact is that you can find a lot of people who are not able to get a good deal on a lot of things. Quit smoking and alcohol is of great significance to men’s health! 4, God is too much pressure Modern people are generally under great pressure of life, especially for male friends, life and work under the influence of dual pressure, it is easy to breed negative emotions, such as frustration, tension, fear, depression, etc., too much mental tension every day, easily lead to endocrine dysfunction, affecting the quality of sperm. Is a man impotent when his kidneys are weak? Many people often confuse kidney deficiency and impotence, in fact, impotence is not all caused by kidney deficiency. The back pain is also not a symptom of kidney deficiency, men should not indiscriminately tonic. The traditional concept of impotence is not caused by kidney deficiency In many people’s traditional concept, whenever they hear that men are not good at sex, sexual function decline and other problems, they like to give others a “kidney deficiency”, “kidney deficiency” “hat “The actual fact is that some elderly people who are eager to hold their grandchildren even often give their sons aphrodisiacs and kidney tonics. Similar patients are often encountered in clinical practice. Due to the influence of traditional understanding, many people think that the decline of sexual function is absolutely related to kidney deficiency. Among patients who have erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, or even infertility, some do have kidney deficiency, but this is only a very small percentage of people, and many have sexual dysfunction caused by other diseases, which include psychological problems, inflammatory problems, and vascular problems caused by hypertension and diabetes, as well as congenital malformations… …If the sexual dysfunction caused by these causes are blamed on kidney deficiency, leaving the real cause untreated and abusing tonic drugs, it will only achieve the opposite effect. The kidney deficiency is divided into three kinds in Chinese medicine: kidney yang deficiency, kidney yin deficiency and kidney qi deficiency. Even if the sexual dysfunction is caused by kidney deficiency, if you do not identify which kind of kidney deficiency and blindly take the tonic is very inappropriate. The reason is that some “Yin Sheng” patients can never use “Mongolian medicine” evil tonic, otherwise it will be harmful to the body. The warmth and aphrodisiacs such as sapodilla and deer antler can even cause accidents in patients with impotence due to hypertension, diabetes and coronary heart disease. In addition, although some patients show symptoms of kidney deficiency, such as reduced sexual function, back pain and leg pain, but also mainly because of work strain, lack of exercise and irregular work and rest and other lifestyle problems, as long as the adjustment, no need to take drugs at all. Back pain is not necessarily kidney deficiency Many patients often associate back pain, nocturia with kidney deficiency, and some doctors do not discriminate, they cater to the psychology of the patients and delusional investment in “kidney stimulant” drugs, the results make patients appear “on fire” phenomenon: The result is that the patient has the phenomenon of “fire”: impatience, boredom and irritability, or even bloodshot eyes, weakness and fatigue, false sexual excitement, easy excitement in intercourse but not durable. In fact, the back pain is not only a kidney problem, more often than not, it may be other diseases such as lumbar strain; similarly, the frequent night urination, young people may be prostatitis, while the middle-aged and elderly men may be prostate hypertrophy. The symptoms of these diseases and kidney deficiency may be somewhat similar, but the treatment is completely different, so it is best to go to the hospital first for a checkup and accurate diagnosis before treatment. Kidney deficiency is not a kidney problem Although the concept of “kidney deficiency” in Chinese medicine is flooding the advertisements of many drugs and health products, many patients do not distinguish what kidney deficiency is all about. In fact, the “kidney” in Chinese medicine is not the “kidney organ” in Western medicine, but a broad scope, its functions are scattered in the endocrine, urinary, reproductive and other systems, clinical diagnosis and treatment still need to be based on a comprehensive overall and local symptoms, in order to reach a conclusion. In other words, kidney deficiency does not mean that the kidney has any disease; on the contrary, most patients with kidney deficiency do not have obvious organic changes in either the structure of the kidney or the structure of other organs. According to Chinese medicine, the kidneys store sperm, the kidneys are responsible for water, the kidneys are responsible for bone, the kidneys are responsible for the absorption of qi, the kidneys open the ears, and the kidneys are responsible for the functions of the two bowels. This shows that the function of the kidneys in TCM is far more important than that in Western medicine. The kidney stores essence, which is the basic material of life, and is divided into the innate essence and the acquired essence, which are combined and stored in the kidney to supply the body’s needs for growth, development and reproduction. When the body reaches puberty, the essence of the kidney begins to flourish, women have menstruation, men have semen excretion, and sexual functions mature, all of which are related to the essence of the kidney. As the human body ages, the essence of the kidney gradually decays and sexual function decreases or even disappears. Therefore, when people are weaker, older, to the sickly autumn, the body’s essence is also naturally insufficient, out of the question, as long as attention to rest and maintenance, “disease” will automatically disappear, no need to take medicine or tonic. Many people often confuse kidney deficiency with impotence, but in fact, impotence is not always caused by kidney deficiency. The back pain is also not a symptom of kidney deficiency, so men should not take any tonic. The traditional concept of impotence is not caused by kidney deficiency In many people’s traditional concept, whenever they hear that men are not good at sex, sexual function decline and other problems, they like to give others a “kidney deficiency”, “kidney deficiency” “hat “The actual fact is that some elderly people who are eager to hold their grandchildren even often give their sons aphrodisiacs and kidney tonics.
