The reasons for the decline in sperm quality
By admin • Dec 9th, 2008 • Category: Men's healthIn the past few decades, the global reduction in the number of male sperm may be related to a called phthalate-related chemicals. Phthalates generally used in toys, food packaging, wallpaper, detergents, lubricants, nail polish, hair spray, shampoo and soap, and so on hundreds of products. Phthalates can interfere with endocrine, so that the decrease in the number of male sperm, the lower exercise capacity, abnormal patterns, can lead to serious testicular cancer. Nail polish in the highest content of phthalate esters, which women will enter the respiratory system and skin in the body, against the birth of their baby’s reproductive system.
Lead to male infertility is one of the reasons why the quality of sperm, some of the reasons for his is a congenital or acquired disease, while others are living in some man-made factors.Research shows that the following factors on the 10 most affected sperm quality.
Cosmetics and food packaging
In the past few decades, the global reduction in the number of male sperm may be related to a called phthalate-related chemicals. Phthalates generally used in toys, food packaging, wallpaper, detergents, lubricants, nail polish, hair spray, shampoo and soap, and so on hundreds of products. Phthalates can interfere with endocrine, so that the decrease in the number of male sperm, the lower exercise capacity, abnormal patterns, can lead to serious testicular cancer. Nail polish in the highest content of phthalate esters, which women will enter the respiratory system and skin in the body, against the birth of their baby’s reproductive system.
Automobile exhaust
Automobile exhaust contains a large number of hazardous substances, prolonged exposure to the human body, the cumulative damage will occur, not only affects reproductive health, but also may increase the incidence of tumors. Automobile exhaust containing dioxin is a very strong environmental endocrine disruptors can change patterns of male testosterone, the decrease in the number of sperm, the ability to reduce the germ.
Tobacco and alcohol
Nicotine in cigarettes harm sperm and semen of men with lower sperm volume and increase the rate of abnormal sperm; alcohol will lead to weakening of the reproductive function, caused by chromosomal abnormalities that cause fetal malformation or dysplasia.
Environmental hormones
Environmental hormones are known: environmental estrogen, anti-environmental estrogen, progesterone anti-environment, anti-androgen environment. “Hormone environment” to the male reproductive effects can be said to be everywhere: clothes (chemical fiber, nylon), fresh (brightener, pesticides, fertilizers pollution), housing (home decoration, marble), the (vehicle exhaust, air Pollution), and the use of cosmetics, hair dyes, detergents, insecticides, and drink (alcohol, cola), wash the (sauna, hot Pao Yu), the act (smoking, sexually transmitted diseases, prostitution), etc. Have caused the infertility problems.
Trace Elements
Male fertility and related trace elements including zinc, selenium, copper, calcium and magnesium. Zinc deficiency affects adolescent male reproductive organs and the development of secondary sexual characteristics, the sperm’s ability to reduce and weaken immune function, so easy for men suffering from prostatitis, epididymitis, and other infectious diseases. Selenium would increase the concentration of peroxide in the body, resulting in male reproductive system and harm the testes.
Temperature
High temperature of the testes produce damage. Animal experiments, the animals will be placed in the male 38. 5 ℃ under 55 minutes after its fertility will decline. In real life, men are advised to avoid high-temperature environment had to stay for a long time, such as washing with hot water and sauna baths, and so on.
Drug
Sedatives, sleeping pills, anti-cancer drugs, chemical drugs in Maryland, such as hormone drugs inhibit the growth of sperm, so men should avoid long-term exposure of such drugs. In addition, radiation may also be caused by the abnormal chromosome sperm disease should avoid abuse. Currently, there are of the proliferation of health care products, some containing sex hormone or a similar composition, may affect the testes of normal spermatogenesis, the unmarried is not in their choice of education should be extra cautious.
Noise
Make noise in human endocrine disorder, resulting in abnormal sperm and semen. For a long time the noise pollution can cause male infertility.
Radiation
Home decoration used in marble, ceramic tiles, granite, Toilet and so on, and some may contain ultra-ray standard. Electromagnetic waves, microwave, infrared, ultraviolet, ultrasound, laser, and other non-ionizing radiation, these factors have a physical effect, which can cause tissue damage gonad. Therefore, in our daily lives, as well as other diseases, to prevent contact with non-ionizing radiation damage to the testicles.
Common notebook
U.S. researchers at the “human reproduction” magazines published by the research results show that the notebook computer running within a maximum temperature up to 70 degrees Celsius; laptop on a long time to work on his legs, so that the temperature of the scrotum by nearly 3 degrees Celsius, Could reduce the number of male sperm, particularly teenage boys and young men obviously affected.
