According to latest research reports, 13% of infertility is attributed to Smoking. Smoking has severe harmful effects on the men who have sperm count on the lower side. Smoking not only affects reproductive capability of parents but also causes cancer in their children by causing mutations in genes and chromosomes. When compare to non smokers, smokers require twice the number of In Vitro fertilisation attempts. In a report, the British Medical Association (BMA) estimated 120,000 British men aged 30 to 50 had become impotent because of smoking. Up to 5,000 miscarriages every year were linked to smoking and passive smoking, and tobacco was implicated in 1,200 cases of malignant cervical cancer each year. Effects of Smoking on the sexual health of Males: 1. Smoking decreases sperm density, total sperm count, total number of motile sperm and citrate concentration in sperm. 2. It changes sperm morphology, sperm vitality and ejaculated volume of semen. Effects of Smoking on the sexual health of Females: 1. Smoking accelerates the loss of reproductive function in females. 2. It advances the Menopause by 1-4 years. 3. It increases the risk of spontaneous abortion and ectopic pregnancy. 4. Smoking causes mutations in ovum and effects reproductive capability. 5.

Daily sex will boost sperm quality
Daily sex will boost your sperm quality and fertility, according to Sydney University team. This research finding busted the common myth that “frequent sex will enhance fertility”. Men generally abstain from sex before conceiving to increase their sperm count. Actually sperm quality rises with frequent sex especially for those with damaged sperm. Quantity may be increased due to abstinence but quality will be reduced. Normal couple may abstain from sex for 2-3 days to enhance sperm count but men with damaged sperm should have frequent sex to enhance fertility. Australian researchers studied 42 men with damaged sperm to arrive at final conclusion. Daily sexual activity for one week enhanced their sperm quality (by reducing DNA damage) by more than 10% which can prevent miscarriages. Frequent ejaculation will reduce sperm damage by decreasing the time spent in reproductive tract. Frequent masturbation will reduce prostate cancer risk by preventing the buildup of cancer causing chemicals in the prostate. Sperm stored in the Epidydimis will be destroyed by free radicals and reduce its quality. Frequent ejaculation will replace these damaged sperm and enhance fertility. Frequent sex will not only help to raise the quality of sperm but also the quality of life by reducing stress. Have more sex and enjoy life. Please share your opinion. … [Read more...]
