Keep the sperm content offspring

Sperm quality is determined by the amount and quality of sperm to begin the process of fertilization. Therefore, it can be said that the number and quality of spermatozoa is an indicator of male fertility.

Sperm is short-lived and cannot divide. But after joining eggs, they can both become new organisms called zygotes

Get to know sperm
In general, the structure of sperm includes the head, body and tail. Every part of sperm has different functions and content, namely:

• leader Consists of a circular solid chromatin fiber surrounded by acrosomes. This part contains an enzyme that is used to penetrate a woman's egg. During fertilization, the DNA contained in the head of the sperm will join the DNA of the egg.
• body In this section, there are mitochondria, which are responsible for producing energy so that the tail can move.
• tail The part that functions to move sperm to fill the egg cell.

DNA damage to sperm can damage or interfere with fetal growth. While the integrity of the sperm's tail, body and head structure determines its quality. If the sperm is immature or imperfect, the egg cannot be fertilized, so there is no pregnancy.

What should be done to make cement content normal?

Sperm is considered ideal if more than 50% of sperm is produced normally. Male fertility will decrease if the amount is less than that. In addition, sperm will be ideal if more than 50% of sperm can move about one hour after ejaculation. The speed of sperm movement is important for reaching the egg; fertilization can occur.

Normal sperm has a pH of around 7.2 to 7.8. Furthermore, the volume of sperm fluid (where sperm is stored) must be greater than 2 millimeters. Seminal fluid below this volume can affect the amount of sperm needed for fertilizing the egg. But excess sperm is also not good, because it shows that sperm is too liquid. Considered in terms of color, white and grayish semen is considered a healthy color.

There are simple ways to maintain the health of intimate organs and sperm content remains normal to support efforts to get offspring:

• Avoid risky sexual behavior, wear condoms during sex to avoid sexually transmitted diseases.
• Keep your penis clean.
• Use loose and comfortable underwear to keep the temperature and testicular blood flow good.
• Take care of your ideal body weight.
• Exercise regularly.
• Set a healthy diet and a balanced diet.
• Stop smoking, consume alcoholic beverages, and consume illegal drugs.
• Take vitamins or supplements that contain antioxidants according to your doctor's recommendations.
• Manage stress well.

For men who try to have children, start getting used to a healthy lifestyle to maintain and improve sperm quality. If you have sperm or fertility problems, don't hesitate to consult a doctor to get the right treatment.
