Effects of smoking on sperm

In my country, smokers are a large group of people, and male smokers are far more than female smokers. In fact, everyone knows that smoking is harmful to health, and some people think that smoking will only affect the health of the lungs. In fact, the harm of smoking is very large. Smoking not only increases the incidence of lung diseases, but also affects fertility. In this article, let's take a look at the effects of smoking on sperm.

Everyone knows that smoking is harmful to health, and most men in life are smokers. Studies have shown that long-term smoking not only greatly increases the chances of lung failure, but also easily leads to decreased libido, weak penis erection, and even reduced and deformed sperm, leading to male infertility. The longer you smoke and the more you smoke, the greater the harm.

Nicotine in cigarettes is a mutagenic substance in sperm, which can affect the maturation and proliferation of germ cells. Studies have found that in people who smoke heavily and smoke cigarettes without filters, their lymphocytes are severely damaged. The rate of chromosome abnormalities in heavy smokers is significantly increased, and the sister chromatid exchange in their peripheral blood lymphocytes is also higher than that of non-smokers. So, does smoking have a big impact on sperm?

Sperm is delicate and can be easily hurt. Therefore, men who have not yet had children should develop good living habits. Good sperm not only increases the chance of pregnancy, but is also a prerequisite for eugenics. Developing habits such as not smoking or drinking, not being picky about food, not having excessive sex, not taking baths with too hot water, not taking medications at will, not being depressed, and avoiding contact with radioactive items such as electrical appliances and electronic products can help protect sperm.

That’s all I have to say about the effects of smoking on sperm. Generally speaking, smoking has a great impact on sperm, so for the sake of health, everyone should stay away from cigarettes in their lives. In addition, everyone should pay attention to developing good living and eating habits, and pay attention to exercise, so that they can maintain many physical conditions.
