There are many reasons for male infertility. Due to the pressure of long-term life and work, as well as the deteriorating environment, the infertility rate is also increasing, harming families who hope for little angels but cannot obtain them. Among them, the phenomenon of male infertility in white-collar workers is particularly prominent, accounting for over 30%.
Experts have summarized the causes of male infertility and created a ranking list for these "male fertility killers".
1. Congenital physical defects: penis congenital dysplasia, such as concealed penis, no penis, small penis, ectopic penis, etc; Congenital dysplasia of the urethra, such as episspadias, hypospadias, congenital urethral diverticulum, stricture, etc; Congenital dysplasia of testis, such as epididymis, cryptorchidism, ectopic testis, etc; Other congenital dysplasia of the reproductive system, such as congenital epididymis and obstruction of spermatic ducts, hypoplasia or absence of seminal vesicles, prostatic dysplasia or diverticulum, are accessory gonadal dysfunction, which are ranked as "birth killers" on the list.
2. Environmental pollution: Environmental pollution ranks second. The constantly deteriorating environment makes air, water, food... full of pollutants, which enter the male body and affect multiple stages of sperm development, seriously affecting the quantity and quality of sperm, greatly increasing sperm deformity rate, and making it difficult for the wife to conceive.
3. Excessive smoking and drinking: Ranked third is excessive smoking and drinking. The research results show that men who smoke more than 30 cigarettes a day have a sperm survival rate of only 49%, and their testosterone secretion is 16% to 47% lower than non-smoking men; However, men who drink excessively will greatly reduce their sperm motility.
4. Not paying attention to dietary regulation: The fourth ranked one is not paying attention to dietary regulation. Men who do not pay attention to dietary regulation can easily lead to imbalanced nutrition, lack of calcium, phosphorus, zinc, selenium, vitamins, etc., affecting the quantity and quality of sperm, and can induce male infertility.
5. Fashion vice: The fifth ranked fashion vice. Many men like to wear stylish tight jeans and take a hot sauna, but they are unaware that sperm grow and develop in a constant temperature environment of 34 ℃ to 35 ℃. Tight jeans and hot sauna can both cause an increase in testicular temperature, hinder sperm production, and cause sperm death.
6. Not paying attention to personal hygiene: ranked sixth is not paying attention to personal hygiene. Male foreskin is prone to bacterial accumulation, especially for those with excessively long foreskin. If not carefully cleaned every day, bacteria and viruses can cause diseases such as prostatitis, urethritis, epididymitis, etc., affecting the growth and development of sperm, motility of sperm, and leading to a decrease in fertility. sterile.
