Related studies have shown that if men continue to watch TV for more than one day per week or more than three hours per day, their sperm count will significantly decrease, almost half of those who watch TV for 4 hours or less. This means that their fertility is also reduced by half, and long-term watching may even lead to male infertility.
The statement that drinking cola can cause sperm quality and quantity has deeply rooted in people's hearts. Related male experts have recently warned young men that if they continue to sit and watch TV for a long time without proper exercise, their sperm count will also significantly decrease. Researchers from Harvard University in the United States have found that as long as men watch three hours of television every day, their sperm count is only half that of those who watch less television.
In the study, scientists selected able-bodied men aged 18 to 25 and confirmed their qualified sperm quality and quantity before the investigation. Researchers identified the quality of their sperm and recorded the time they spent on sports and watching TV within three months. After considering factors such as diet, stress, and smoking that may affect sperm quality, it was found that they engage in moderate to intense physical activity for 5-14 hours per week, while watching TV for 4-20 hours.
Compared to men who usually have moderate exercise habits, men who often sit for a long time but lack exercise will have a huge difference in sperm quality and number. Experts point out that this is caused by excessive testicular temperature due to prolonged sitting posture. In addition, experts also remind men who plan to have children to avoid wearing tight underwear to improve sperm quality, and point out that men who frequently drive and ride bicycles also have a risk of infertility.
Therefore, men should pay attention to active exercise in their spare time and avoid sitting in front of the TV or computer for a long time to avoid a decrease in sperm count and quality, which can affect their reproductive and reproductive abilities.
