Many myths surrounding male fertility included ‘if you have more sex, you will exhaust your sperm supply’ or ‘if men masturbate, they will have less sperm’. This is not true. The frequency of sex or number of times a man ejaculates does not decrease the amount of sperm, or sperm count. In fact, a man may lose all sensations and sexual functions due to a spinal cord injury but he still has a normal sperm count.
One myth that hubby seems to like is that 'man with low sperm count should restrict the number of times they have sex. this is to give time for them to replenish the sperm.' In fact men with low sperm count should have as much sex as possible so as to ensure that as much sperms are projected into the uterus.
Other myths:
‘Rear entry position has better chances to get your partner pregnant’ - The position you select holds no ground on the ability to conceive. Positions merely add variety and better stimulation for the deed.
‘You can’t impregnate your partner if you have a low sperm count’ - This is contrary to popular believe as a low sperm count may have better quality sperms adequate for the final stage – getting through the egg. Some men with higher sperm counts may not fertilize an egg. Possibly the sperms may be found to have two heads or two tails; even a sperm that’s got a big head.
‘If a couple still hasn’t got a kid, the woman’s infertile' - You would have probably heard this more than often when couples can’t conceive. It is sometimes the man that is infertile. 30 percent of couples seeking help, at least 30 couples have a problem and its due to male causes for sub-fertility.
‘viagra increases sperm count’ - Viagra does not increase sperm count but helps a man maintain or get an erection.
'traditional Chinese medicine, Qigong and TongKat Ali makes a man more potent’ - Traditional Chinese medicine and other Asian fertility enhancing herbs may boost male fertility but may not be a complimentary treatment for some people.
‘the bigger your penis, the more sperms’ - Size of the penis has nothing to do with sperm count or fertility. (Hmmm... but I guess I know what it has to do with... Heheheh....)
IMPORTANT!!!
‘wear your pants too tight and you will kill the sperms' - This one is not a myth, so it is true. Temperature affects the sperm’s well being and it thrives in an environment that’s between 74 – 77 degrees cooler than our body temperature. Sperm motility declines when the environment is not conducive. Men in tropical climate, compared to their male counterparts in cooler climates, have a lower sperm count on average. A normal count is about 20 million sperms or more.
Next time you hear someone say that if you don’t wash your scrotum, your sperm will eat its way out of it and die, you know that its not exactly untrue but a little misinterpreted. Your scrotum just need to be cool to keep those little ‘dudes’ happy to encourage motility, count and quality. So guys what are you waiting for, let your ‘balls’ hang out for that breath of fresh cooling air!
