Fertility Acupuncture and Sperm Quality
Men experience problems with fertility as well as women but it doesn’t get talked about as much. At Fertility Acupuncture South Yarra we believe that men’s health is just as important as women’s which is why we have fertility acupuncture treatments especially designed to treat men’s fertility concerns.
What Causes Male infertility?
Like women, there are many different potential contributors to male infertility and many are lifestyle related. Here are some of the more common causes:
Alcohol: Excessive amounts of alcohol or alcohol on a too regular basis can affect not only your general health but your fertility as well, maybe time to cut back and give your body a break.
Smoking: Smoking has no good qualities and here is another one to add to its bad rap sheet. It also reduces fertility and that is not just cigarettes that is smoking anything! If you want to give up acupuncture can help relieve the withdrawals and the cravings.
Coffee: It has been proven that large quantities of caffeine on a regular basis can reduce sperm quality.
Overweight: If you are overweight and a man your testosterone will decrease and estrogen production as a result your fertility and particularly your sperm quality will suffer. Acupuncture can help to increase your metabolism and decrease your desire for food with a quick treatment where some key points are stimulated.
Sex: One way to increase sperm quality is to have sex and if you want to increase the quantity don’t for a few days.
Fumes: Toxic fumes are bad for your health and that includes your fertility. Make sure you wear the proper safety equipment whenever you must be exposed to minimize any effects that you may experience.
Stress: Don’t get stressed about trying to conceive because it is the same as for women, stress makes conceiving harder for men as well by reducing sperm quality as well as desire. Fertility acupuncture for men at Fertility Acupuncture South Yarra can help you to relax and de-stress.
Diet: Eat well to improve your fertility, zinc, vitamins E and C, CoQ10, selenium and carnitine are known for improving fertility in men so ensure that you have plenty in your daily diet.
Clothing: It is true that too tight underwear and pants can affect men’s fertility primarily because they overheat the genital area. Don’t make these are habit and try some looser clothing to improve fertility.
Exercise: As for women exercise helps fertility but a word of warning for men. It is advisable to avoid lots of cycling and any sport that will overheat and keep you overheated for an extended period of time.
