Tips to Increase Sperm Count and Motility

In this article, for those who want to increase sperm count, I will share with you effective methods that will increase the release of testosterone (male hormone), which has a direct effect on sperm count and quality.

You Must Move More to Increase Sperm Quality

Doing regular sports not only improves your athletic performance and physical appearance and raises your quality of life, but also increases the testosterone level in your blood. Scientific research results have shown that testosterone levels of men who exercise are higher compared to men who do not exercise.

However, you must strike a good balance when doing sports; if you exercise more than necessary, you can put your body under physical stress and create the exact opposite effect on your testosterone level. Although it is possible to increase sperm count by doing sports, it is important to avoid very intense and long-lasting workouts. You can reach detailed information on the subject from my content titled "Does Excessive Exercise Lower Sperm Values?".

Stress is One of the Biggest Enemies of Sperm!

If you are exposed to long-term psychological stress, you cause an increase in your cortisol hormone release. When the cortisol level in your blood increases, your testosterone level decreases.

A drop in testosterone can lead to many effects. Low testosterone can cause both a decrease in sperm quality and the formation of sexual dysfunctions in men. Even if you cannot stay away from stress, you should try to reduce your stress by at least taking time for yourself and, if possible, meditating. Thus, you can control the negative effects of stress on both general and reproductive health.

You Must Ensure You Are Getting Enough Vitamin D

Vitamin D is a true friend of testosterone. According to the results of scientific research, it has been shown that there is a linear link between Vitamin D and testosterone levels. If Vitamin D intake increases, the testosterone level also rises. Additionally; it has recently been claimed that Vitamin D is also effective on sperm motility, but this claim has not yet been fully proven.

Increase Your Zinc Consumption

The Zinc mineral, which is a powerful antioxidant, strengthens the immune system, fights against free radicals to suppress cancerous cell formation, and is among the biggest enemies of male infertility; is found in intense amounts in animal foods.

As a result of scientific reviews, it has been shown that this mineral can increase testosterone levels and sperm count! As I always say, a healthy diet is as important for our reproductive health as it is for our general health. It is possible for us to prevent the formation of many health problems by eating sufficient, balanced, and healthy foods! While we are on the subject, I would like to remind you that red meat, eggs, and fish are among the protein-rich foods that help to increase sperm count.

Aim to Improve Your General Health

You can apply these methods to protect against male infertility or to raise your sperm quality. At the same time, you can raise the quality of your sperm by providing weight control, stopping alcohol consumption, eating healthily, paying attention to your sleep patterns, and quitting smoking; in other words, by making changes that will improve your general health.

You should not forget that you need to have your health checks done and follow the feedback you receive from experts before applying all these recommendations!
