For this difficult question, men can also do some simple tests at home and always take care of their physical health. So, how to self check the health of sperm? According to the regulations of the World Health Organization, if semen is normal or abnormal, men can make their own judgments based on the following four points.
Methods for Judging the Health of Male Sperm
(1) Semen volume: The normal volume should be greater than or equal to 2ml (milliliters). If it exceeds 7ml, it is considered excessive. At this time, not only does the sperm density decrease, but it is also easy to flow out of the female vagina, resulting in a decrease in the total number of sperm, which is common in patients with seminal vesiculitis. If the total amount is less than 2ml, it indicates a low semen volume. If the total amount is less than 1ml, it indicates a low semen volume and can easily lead to infertility.
(2) Color: The normal color is gray white or slightly yellow. If the semen appears milky white or chartreuse, it indicates that there is inflammation in the male genital tract or accessory gonad. If pink, red, or red blood cells can be seen under a microscope, it is bloody semen, commonly seen in patients with accessory gonads and posterior urethritis, and occasionally in patients with tuberculosis or tumors.
(3) Viscosity: contact the liquefied semen with a glass rod, and gently lift it to form semen filaments. If the semen is normal, the length of the semen filament should be less than 2 centimeters.
(4) Liquefaction time: after normal semen is ejected, it will become jelly under the action of seminal vesicle coagulase, and then become liquid under the action of prostate liquefying enzyme after 15-30 minutes, which is called semen liquefaction. If the semen does not liquefy after 30 minutes of ejaculation, it is considered abnormal.
In addition, semen pH, sperm motility and other indicators need to be tested to get accurate results. If men find that none of the above four indicators are normal, they should go to the hospital for further laboratory tests.
How do men improve their semen?
Magnesium helps regulate human heart activity, lower blood pressure, prevent heart disease, and improve men's fertility. It is suggested that men should have 2 bowls of oatmeal Congee with milk and 1 banana for breakfast. Foods containing magnesium include soybeans, potatoes, walnuts, oatmeal Congee, macaroni, leafy vegetables and seafood.
Arginine is the main component of sperm head production and should improve sperm motility. The tokens rich in arginine include sea cucumber, eel, loach, cuttlefish, sesame, yam, ginkgo, tofu skin, frozen tofu, peanut kernels, sunflower seeds, hazelnuts, etc. Since ancient times, sea cucumbers have been regarded as tonifying the kidneys, tonifying the essence, and treating yang_ A treasure of flaccidity.
Kind reminder: On the one hand, men should achieve success in their careers, and on the other hand, they should take care of their families. Life makes men exhausted, but their physical health is often not valued. In fact, because of this, men need more care than women and should pay more attention to their own health.
