Are your sperm and spermatozoa unhealthy?
Many couples are unaware of the relationship between sperm count and motility (ability to move), and the future of their relationship.
If you want to conceive a child but have a low sperm count and/or limited motility, you could find yourself in a very complicated situation.

Low sperm volume: what’s the impact on your male fertility?
Low semen volume and low motility (sperm mobility) are two of the main causes of infertility. It’s true that an egg only needs one sperm to be fertilized. But the chances of this sperm uniting with the egg are very slim indeed, hence the need for millions of sperm in the semen. If your sperm production is low, your chances of impregnating your partner are greatly reduced. This is also the case if you suffer from low motility, a dysfunction that affects sperm mobility.
Your dream of starting a family and having offspring who will bear your name is closely linked to these two elements. Having children is a wonderful and miraculous experience. It’s the ultimate step in a couple’s life and the beautiful fruit of your love. For this reason, and to prevent any hindrance to its realization, you need to start worrying right now about the quality of your spermatozoa and their good motility, without any restraint.
If you suffer from one or both of these problems, SpecialHomme has some practical advice to help you achieve good sperm quality and motility.
What to do if you have low sperm production?
Admitting it isn’t always easy. But if you face the problem with an open mind and accept this fact, you’re on the right path to remedy it.
The first thing you should do is consult your urologist and ask for a sperm count test. Knowing your actual sperm count can help you pinpoint the problem more clearly, so you’ll have a clearer picture of what to do.
You should also try to change the bad habits you adopt on a daily basis. For example, stopping smoking will significantly help to increase your sperm count. You should also reduce your alcohol consumption. Also, try to eat plenty of iron-rich seafood and shellfish. Finally, you need to achieve an optimal weight and lose excess kilos through regular exercise. These measures can help increase the number of sperm in your semen.
Low sperm motility and mobility, you say?
Motility is different from motility. Motility refers to the ability of spermatozoa to move (some sperm don’t have the ability to move), while motility refers only to spermatozoa that are able to move, and whether or not they actually move (maybe there are some lazy ones among those little rascals).
Admitting low sperm motility is difficult for a man to conceive. Whereas the causes behind this dysfunction, which are usually psychological, can be eliminated quite simply. If you’re sure you have lazy sperm, then you should start by reducing stress by learning a few relaxation techniques. You also need to stop smoking to rejuvenate your sperm.
If you’re looking for a technique to apply urgently and on the spot, you can take a cold shower just before intercourse, which can temporarily improve sperm motility.
