What causes low sperm quality?

Male infertility is on the rise and there are a lot of factors that work to deteriorate sperm and semen count. Some of them are given below:

1. Age: As a man grows older with age, his chances of fertilization is nearly half as those who are below 40. This is the case with most men, but not necessarily all.

2. Emotional distress: Tension at home or work will interfere with the working of hormones and hamper sperm production.

3. Sexual deficiencies like premature ejacualation/impotence: These sexual deficiencies hamper the fertilization process.

4. Overheating: Excessive heating of the testicular area will seriously prohibit proper sperm growth.

5. Smoking and obesity: Smoking and obesity are conditions that have only the person to blame. These are easily avoidable. If you smoke, then you should decide to keep it under control. If excessive eating is the cause of your obesity, then you should control your diet.
