Soybean products do not affect men's health, but long-term staying up late can cause infertility

It is estimated that more than 10 million young and middle-aged men nationwide have no sperm or sperm dysplasia. Although they have semen, their sperm are all dead or deformed. Among them, the proportion of male infertility in the "post 80s" generation is gradually increasing. Nowadays, many young people stay up late for a long time, drowsy and listless during the day. It is understood that staying up late also has a significant impact on infertility.

Staying up late for a long time makes eugenics a dream

Nowadays, China is facing severe challenges in eugenics and childcare. In the 1970s, the proportion of infertile and infertile people was below 3%, but according to the latest research, there are about 4 million infertile and infertile people nationwide, the proportion has reached 12.5%. As for the reasons, in addition to factors such as female fallopian tubes and uterus, male infertility has also increased significantly. It is estimated that more than 10 million young and middle-aged men nationwide have no sperm or sperm dysplasia. Although they have semen, their sperm are all dead or deformed. In Shanghai, about 100000 men are infertile, and 40% of infertility clinics are male. Among them, the proportion of male infertility in the "post 80s" generation is gradually increasing.

Expert analysis believes that it is closely related to busy and tense work and long-term staying up late. After long-term staying up late, sperm and eggs will not develop well, or lead to endocrine disorders. Late marriage and late childbirth are also a reason. Nowadays, many people do not marry until they are in their thirties. It is more difficult to have children beyond the age of 35, because the quality of eggs and sperm is not the same as in their twenties. In addition, environmental issues are also an objective cause, such as air and water pollution, and increased hormones in food. Therefore, Zuo Huanchen recommends that young people develop good living habits, exercise moderately, and eat reasonably. "I hope that young people do not stay up late. Only when they have a good sleep and less mental pressure can they ensure the normal functioning of their sperm and eggs, thereby producing healthy babies."

Therefore, everyone should stay up as little as possible, maintain adequate sleep, reduce psychological stress, and ensure normal sperm and egg development.

Sitting too long can also affect fertility

Some people say that sitting on a soft sofa for a long time can also affect fertility. In response, experts believe that sitting for a long time can compress the perineum, while a sofa that is too soft can cause the entire hip to sink in, increasing the pressure. "The scrotum cannot normally regulate temperature under this pressure, resulting in an increase in testicular temperature and an impact on reproductive function.". At the same time, long-term compression can also hinder the circulation of the perineum, causing local organs to become congested, which can easily lead to inflammation. Prostatitis, if not treated promptly, can affect sperm motility and cause infertility. Some readers have asked whether there are age restrictions on male fertility. Experts say that fertility is not necessarily related to age, and the quantity and quality of male sperm determine fertility. As long as you have healthy sperm, you can have children at any age.

Normal consumption of soy products does not affect male health

A reader said that he had always had the habit of drinking soybean milk for breakfast, but he dared not drink it after reading such a message on the Internet - some components in soybeans can "simulate" the function of the estrogen, causing a decline in sperm numbers. In response, some scholars have shown that beans and their products are rich in isoflavone phytoestrogens, and long-term intake of large doses of isoflavone phytoestrogens can lead to erectile dysfunction. However, this study needs further confirmation. There is no clinical evidence that soy is harmful to men's health, and the amount of soy consumed in daily life does not cause testicular atrophy and breast growth in men. On the contrary, appropriate soy products can effectively reduce the incidence of prostate cancer.

Five taboos to prevent infertility

1. Avoid excessive riding of bicycles, motorcycles, tricycles, and horses.

This often causes chronic strain and congestion of the prostate and other accessory glands, affecting their function, exacerbating chronic inflammation, and affecting fertility.

2. Avoid excessive hot water baths.

Testicular sperm production requires an environment that is 1 ℃ - 1.5 ℃ lower than normal body temperature of 37 ℃. According to data, after soaking in warm water at 43 ℃ - 44 ℃ for 20 minutes for three consecutive days, the sperm density of people with normal sperm density can drop to less than 10 million per milliliter, which can last for three weeks. The recent research on "warm contraception" is based on this principle. Therefore, frequent and prolonged hot water baths are not suitable for infertile patients with low sperm count and low viability. Of course, having a hot bath 1-2 times a week and not too long doesn't matter.

3. Avoid malnutrition and partial eating.

Sperm production requires raw materials, so spermatogenic function is closely related to nutritional levels. It doesn't necessarily have to eat turtle or eel. However, it is essential to eat more lean meat, eggs, fish, and vegetables to ensure the supply of necessary proteins, vitamins, and trace elements. People who are partial eaters are often prone to certain nutritional deficiencies.

4. Avoid having sex too often and too closely.

Moderate sex can bring joy to people, and it is good for the body and health. However, if one indulges in excess and does not know how to control it, the reproductive organs are in a congestive state for a long time, which can easily lead to diseases such as prostatitis, prostate hypertrophy, impotence, and premature ejaculation.

5. Avoid mental depression and excessive fatigue.

Depression and fatigue can affect sexual and spermatogenic functions.
