Male Infertility
May 12, 2020 , Last updated: August 26, 2024

When it comes to fertility issues, a lot of the time, the focus is on the women. This is mainly because the pressure of conceiving is on them. However, one-third of all fertility issues amongst a couple are actually down to the guy. Over the past 50-60 years, the problem of male infertility has increased substantially with the men’s sperm count dropped by about 50%. (Source: NCBI)

Causes of male fertility

Certain factors might be at play when we talk about male infertility. Let’s look at them:

  • Lifestyle factors

The usual culprits, smoking, drinking, recreational drugs etc. have shown to reduce sperm count and quality. So, if you are really trying to conceive, it is highly recommended to cut down or entirely quit those habits.

  • Excessive exercise

Excessive exercise could lower your sperm count indirectly by lowering the amount of testosterone in your body.

  • Weight factor

If you are really underweight or overweight, similar to women trying to conceive, any extreme weight is a bad idea and that too is related to the level of testosterone. So, being overweight or underweight will result in reduced testosterone and this will lead to poor sperm quality.

  • Medical factor

You may have a genetically low sperm count and you can have certain auto-immune conditions which can produce antibodies which will attack your own sperm. Some of the medical conditions that affect sperm formation are diabetes and thyroid problems.

  • Mental factor

Chronic stress can reduce sperm and semen quality, which could have implications for male fertility.

Other factors need to be taken into account as well. The testicles are outside of your body for a reason. That’s because sperm needs to be at a lower temperature than the rest of the body. So, very tight-fitting boxer shorts or laptops on your lap all day could be potentially harmful. It is really important to keep the temperature low down there.

Now let’s take a look at how to go about the male infertility treatment.
