Sperm motility is normal

In modern clinical medicine, sperm motility is mainly used to test whether a man is fertile. Sperm motility refers to the survival rate, movement intensity and state of a man's sperm. Only when the sperm is in motion can the sperm and egg combine to form a fertilized egg. Therefore, the level of sperm motility has a key impact on a man's fertility, but what should a man do if his sperm motility is average?

1. What is the normal sperm motility?

Normal male sperm motility A-grade sperm should be greater than 25%, and A+B should be greater than 50%. If it is less than one of these two values, it means that the sperm motility is poor, which will affect fertility. Daily treatment is not complicated. First of all, the cause of the disease must be found. Common causes of poor sperm motility include endocrine disorders, nutritional deficiencies, trace element deficiencies, inflammation, etc.

2. Causes of Low Sperm Motility in Men

1. The harm of cigarettes and alcohol to sperm. Nicotine in cigarettes can harm sperm, reduce the sperm content in male semen, and increase the rate of abnormal sperm. Alcohol can lead to weakened reproductive function, cause chromosomal abnormalities, and cause fetal malformation or developmental retardation.

2. High temperatures can damage the testicles. Men should try to avoid staying in a high temperature environment for too long, such as taking a sauna or a hot bath.

3. Avoid contact with drugs that are harmful to sperm growth. Sedatives, sleeping pills, anticancer drugs, chemical drugs, etc. are harmful to sperm growth, so men should try to avoid long-term and large-scale contact with such drugs.

4. Vitamin deficiency: Zinc and selenium deficiency are important causes of low sperm motility. Zinc and selenium combined can protect sperm membranes and delay lipid oxidation in sperm membranes, thereby maintaining the stability of cell structure and physiological permeability, and enabling sperm to have good activity and growth ability.

5. Reproductive system infection: Reproductive system infection changes the composition of seminal plasma. The decrease of zinc, magnesium, citric acid, and fructose and the increase of pH will affect sperm motility and growth ability.

6. Immune factors: Antisperm antibodies can affect the fertilization function of sperm in several different ways. The effect on sperm motility comes from the binding of the sperm tail, which hinders the sperm's motility, reduces its motility, and has poor penetration ability. This has been confirmed by the fact that when antisperm antibodies are present in the sperm tail, the ability to penetrate cervical mucus is significantly reduced.

The above are related issues about male sperm motility. You also need to pay attention to them in your daily life, especially smoking and drinking, which have an impact on sperm motility, as well as eating habits, etc. Eating more vegetables and fruits, especially foods containing zinc, is very beneficial for sperm production. Do not take some drugs frequently that hinder sperm production.
