How to improve the quality of precision

Improving semen quality requires multi-dimensional intervention such as adjusting lifestyle, improving dietary structure, and targeted treatment of underlying diseases. The main methods include quitting smoking and limiting alcohol, supplementing zinc and selenium, controlling inflammation of the reproductive system, avoiding high temperature environments, and regular ejaculation.

1. Quit smoking and limit alcohol consumption

The metabolites of nicotine and alcohol in tobacco can directly damage the testicular spermatogenic function, leading to a decrease in sperm density and an increase in the rate of malformations. Long-term smokers may have reduced semen volume and significantly increased sperm DNA fragmentation index. Sperm motility will gradually improve 3-6 months after withdrawal. It is recommended to cooperate with aerobic exercise to accelerate the metabolism of harmful substances.

2. Supplement zinc and selenium

Zinc is involved in the formation of sperm acrosome enzymes. The daily intake should reach 15 mg, which can be supplemented through oysters, beef and other foods. Selenium is an important component of sperm mitochondrial membrane. Its deficiency can lead to sperm tail deformity. Brazil nuts, sea fish, etc. are rich in selenium. Preparations such as zinc gluconate tablets and selenium yeast tablets are commonly used clinically for supplementation.

3. Control reproductive inflammation

Diseases such as chronic prostatitis and seminal vesiculitis can cause abnormal semen pH and increase leukocytes, inhibiting sperm motility. After diagnosis, you need to use antibiotics such as levofloxacin tablets and cefixime dispersible tablets as directed by your doctor, and use warm water sitz bath to improve local blood circulation. After the inflammation is controlled, a routine semen check is required to confirm the recovery.

4. Avoid high temperature environment

The optimal temperature of the testicles is 2-3°C lower than the body temperature. Long-term hot spring bathing, wearing tight pants, etc. will increase the scrotal temperature. Apoptosis of seminiferous epithelial cells accelerates in high temperature environments. It is recommended to choose pure cotton loose underwear. Sedentary people can get up and move every hour. Drivers can use breathable seat cushions.

5. Regular ejaculation

Abstinence for more than 7 days will lead to an increase in the proportion of aged sperm. It is recommended to maintain a semen ejaculation frequency of 2-3 days. However, daily ejaculation may cause insufficient sperm concentration. During pregnancy preparation, ovulation test strips can be used to detect it, and women should abstain from sex for 3-5 days before ovulation to reserve high-quality sperm. Masturbation or sexual intercourse can maintain normal metabolism of the reproductive system.

You can increase your daily intake of dark vegetables and berries. Their antioxidant content helps reduce oxidative stress damage to sperm. Avoid exposure to pesticides, heavy metals and other environmental toxins, and those working in the chemical industry need to take occupational protection. If there is no improvement for 3 months, it is recommended to conduct reproductive hormone testing and scrotal ultrasound to check for pathological factors. If necessary, use Shengjing capsules, vitamin E soft capsules and other drugs for auxiliary treatment. All medications must be taken under the guidance of an andrologist.
