9 Simple Solutions to Improve Men's Fertility
Have you been struggling to conceive? Maybe you've been staring at a negative pregnancy test for far too long...
And maybe, you've looked into everything on your female spouse's side. She's been eating healthy, ditched the toxins, taking supplements, having regular periods but still no luck.
The truth is, doctors and professionals often only look towards the woman's health whenever fertility obstacles arise.
Infertility is 40% due to male factors and 40% due to female factors.
So, yes, you may have implemented all the necessary changes to optimize your fertility...but has your partner?
It might be time to start investigating male fertility because, it takes two to tango if you know what I mean 💃🕺
Let's See How you can immediately increase male fertility 👇🏼
Embrace A Nutrient-Rich Diet:
Nourishing your body with plenty of fresh fruits, vegetables, wild caught fish, lean proteins, and healthy fats. These nutrient-rich foods provide essential vitamins and minerals like Zinc, Vitamin C, and antioxidants, which support sperm health and production.
Stay Hydrated:
Don't forget to drink plenty of water! Hydration is crucial for maintaining optimal sperm production and quality. Aim for at least 100 ounces of water a day to keep those little swimmers swimming happily.
Manage Stress:
Stress can wreak havoc on male fertility. Practice relaxation techniques like deep breathing, meditation, yoga, or gentle exercise to help calm the mind and reduce stress hormones that can interfere with fertility.
Exercise Regularly:
Gentle exercise such as walking, swimming, or weight training, can help improve circulation, boost mood, and support overall reproductive health. Just remember, moderation is key, as excessive exercise can have the opposite effect on fertility. Be cautious of any activity that would increase the temperature of the testicles for long periods of time (ie: sauna).
Maintain A Healthy Weight:
Maintaining a healthy weight is crucial for optimal fertility. Excess body fat can disrupt hormone levels and sperm production, while being underweight can also negatively impact fertility. Strive for a balanced approach to nutrition and exercise to achieve a healthy weight.
Limit Alcohol & Caffeine:
While the occasional glass of wine or cup of coffee is perfectly fine, excessive alcohol and caffeine intake can impair sperm production and quality. Moderation is key, so try to limit alcohol and caffeine consumption for optimal fertility.
Prioritize Sleep:
Quality sleep is essential for hormone regulation and overall health, including fertility. Aim for seven to eight hours of restful sleep each night to support optimal reproductive function. For added sleep support and more restful sleep, consider adding in a sleep support system like this one. Our co-founder, Dr. Jake loves this bundle.
Supplements:
Certain supplements like zinc, vitamin C, vitamin E, and coenzyme Q10 have been shown to support male fertility by improving sperm quality and function. Check out our sperm foundations bundle here. For more specific suggestions, consult with a holistic health practitioner on our team to determine the right supplements for you!
Balancing Blood Sugar:
Elevated blood sugar can lead to oxidative stress and inflammation in the body. Keeping the blood sugar stable with a whole food diet and short walks after meals can be extremely helpful for both men and women! For blood sugar support, check out the Blood Sugar Support Bundle.
It's important that both people in a relationship are putting in work & have the tools and resources to maximize their fertility to increase chances of bringing a beautiful bundle of joy into the world. 👶
