There is jelly in the semen/the rate of sperm deformity is high, and alcoholism and smoking are the main causes

There are many factors in life that can cause sperm abnormalities, such as frozen or deformed shapes. So what are the causes? Let me take a look!

alcoholism

Studies have shown that alcohol poisoning caused by excessive drinking may damage sperm, causing an increased rate of sperm deformity. It may also cause sexual dysfunction such as sexual apathy, impotence, and premature ejaculation.

Smoking

The more you smoke every day, the higher the incidence of sperm abnormalities. The longer you smoke, the more sperm abnormalities you will have. It is worth noting that the harm of smoking is not limited to increasing the number of sperm abnormalities, but can also lead to asthenospermia.

Nutritional Deficiency

Zinc and selenium are the most important trace elements related to sperm production and maturation. When zinc and selenium are deficient, the hypothalamus-pituitary-gonad axis is affected, causing the pituitary gland to secrete less gonadotropin, gonadal function to decline, sperm production to decrease, and thus increase the rate of sperm deformity.

Temperature is too high

The testicle produces sperm and matures in the epididymis. The suitable temperature for sperm is 35-36℃. When the temperature of the scrotum rises due to various reasons, it will affect the development of sperm, such as wearing tight underwear for a long time, sitting for a long time (driving, riding a car), taking a hot bath, working in a high temperature environment, etc.

Varicose vein

Varicose veins affect spermatogenesis, resulting in decreased sperm motility, immature sperm cells and an increase in the number of sperm with pointed heads.

Infect

Certain infections of the male urinary and reproductive systems are also one of the important causes of teratozoospermia. The more common infections that affect sperm abnormalities include prostatitis, seminal vesiculitis, urethritis, orchitis, epididymitis, etc.
