Does drinking alcohol kill sperm?

If you are preparing to get pregnant, you must first change your bad living habits. Because only in this way can you ensure good birth and upbringing. Especially for male friends, in order to ensure the health of sperm, some bad living habits, such as drinking and smoking, need to be prohibited, and physical exercise is also needed. Then, many friends will ask: Does drinking kill sperm?

Long-term alcoholics are prone to chronic alcoholism. Once chronic alcoholism occurs, the patient will suffer from testicular atrophy, which will lead to a decline in the quality of semen. Studies have found that it takes at least three months of conditioning to recover from a drunken state. Experts believe that men who are planning to have children should wait at least three months after being drunk before letting their wives conceive, in order to ensure the health of the fetus.

Drinking a very small amount of alcohol will not affect the quality of sperm, but drinking too much will definitely affect the survival of sperm, because the main component of alcohol is ethanol, which has an anesthetic effect and can quickly enter the various tissues and cells of the human body through the blood circulation, thereby affecting the quality of sperm.

Beer directly affects male fertility. Lynn Frazee, a fertility expert at King's College London, found that a substance in hops can mimic the function of estrogen, affecting the movement of sperm, thereby reducing male fertility efficiency. If some male friends already have kidney diseases and drink a lot of beer without restriction, uric acid will accumulate, leading to obstruction of renal tubules and kidney failure. The quality of the kidneys is also related to male "sperm".

In short, experts believe that men who are planning to have children should wait at least three months after being drunk before letting their wives get pregnant, in order to ensure the health of the fetus. I hope this article can help everyone.
