Usually, most of the men have required volume of sperms and are naturally healthy. Some group of men usually have lesser volumes of sperms which are insufficient for success rates in pregnancy. In this article, we will have a thorough analysis on “Natural ways to increase Sperm Count” and also the normal sperm count range in men.
What is Sperm Count Range?
The sperm count range normally refers to the number of sperms which a male is able to produce keeping the quality and effective functioning of the sperms. The normal range of sperm counts in males are around 120 to 340 million sperms per cubic centimeter. The lower sperm counts are usually referred in males where the sperm count is below 40 million per cubic centimeters. They are usually affected by various factors such as smoking, unhealthy food practices, exposure to restricted elements etc, which we will discuss in this article.
How to Increase the Sperm Count?
We know that, this is the question among many males. However, there are some general factors which may have an effect on your sperm count and they are as follows,
Avoid Exposure to Heat:
- Many of us might be reluctant in accepting this fact, but it is obviously true that getting exposed to more heat may spoil your sperm count and quality.
- Taking a hot water bath or wearing tight dresses which almost holds the testes region tightly will normally make an impact on increasing the normal body temperature.
- This will usually result in slow functioning of the testes, eventually leading to lower sperm counts and also producing sperms of the lowest quality.
- Hence it is recommended that men usually wear fit dresses which allows some relaxation to the testes rather than suppressing them tightly.
- Also sleeping without underwear in nights may help the cause to allow some air to the testes which makes them active and work efficiently in production.
