Preventing male infertility without preventing getting married first, then getting married

When white-collar workers and college students volunteer to donate sperm to human sperm banks, they are found to have various male diseases during physical examinations, which not only prevent sperm donation, but also require prompt treatment or even surgery. In fact, this is also a microcosm of the male problem in today's society.

In recent years, the number, quality and activity rate of male sperm have declined, male infertility is increasing, and the divorce demography caused by infertility is increasing. Especially in some economically developed big cities, men are getting married at an increasingly late age, with the helplessness of working hard for their careers and the freedom to play for a few years while young. However, the increase in male infertility caused by late childbirth has laid hidden dangers for happy marriages.

Infertility experts told reporters that cases like this are often found in clinical practice. Nowadays, the concept of "starting a career first and getting married later" is prevalent, with over 60% of men hoping to wait until they have a house, a car, and a small career before getting married. In fact, from a health perspective, it's better to start a family first and then start a career. With the increasingly serious environmental pollution, the increasing pressure on survival, and the impact of unhealthy lifestyles, the incidence rate of infertility in China is consistent with the world level, with one couple in every 10 couples unable to have children on average. At present, there is also a significant increase in the population of male infertility due to aging, high pressure, and other factors. In fact, regardless of gender, the optimal age for childbirth should be between 25 and 28 years old. In recent years, with the development of industrialization, the impact of toxic and harmful gases on male sperm far exceeds that on eggs. Especially, the proportion of infertility caused by male partners has significantly increased, from 20% in the past to 40%, almost doubling. At the same time, the number, quality, and activity rate of sperm have also decreased.

The quality of human sperm is closely related to age, and sperm quality is a major issue for human survival and reproduction. For the health of future generations and the happiness of families, men may as well "start a family first and then start a career".
