Men must be aware of how important, and good cold showers can be for their physical and sexual health. One of the things you must do to increase your sperm count is to avoid hot baths and hot tubs. Read more to learn more.
Everyone, including myself, loves hot baths and hot tubs especially when the temperatures are chilly. However, there is a reason as to why we should be cautious about these hot baths.
First, you should know that excessive temperatures are not very friendly to your testicles. Secondly, by just staying for half an hour in a hot tub or bath in water which has 102 F temperature level or higher, you will be reducing your sperm count.
Going way back to the 50’s, studies showed that men who spent more than 30 minutes in hot baths for three times per week became infertile within a period of six months. In addition to this, a recent study showed that men who cut off their hot baths increased their sperm count by 491%.
Infertility which arises from exposure to hot tubs and hot baths can be sometimes reversible. This was concluded from a study which was conducted in the University of California by a urologist.
The study was conducted through a period of three years on men who had been infertile due to exposure to hot baths. The wet heat exposure is known to have a negative impact on male infertility. This was stated by the study team leader who is a professor at the UCSF Department of Urology.
In addition to this, dry heat exposure which may come from fevers of direct heat exposure to testicles has proved to be a cause of impaired sperm production in both humans and animals.
In addition to this, a study showed that wet heat exposure to the body leads to poor sperm production and impaired sperm motility. The good news is that 50% of the men who were infertile due to the wet heat exposure became fertile once they stooped this practice.
In America, 7% of couples tend to have problems in conceiving a child natural within one year. This information was from the 2002 National Survey of Family Growth, the latest data available to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
According to the American Society, 30% of those are attributed to men, 30% to females while the rest are due to other natural causes. The ASRM estimates that 85%-90% of these cases can be treated surgically or through drug treatment.
Why go through all these expenses while you can conceive naturally? The only sacrifice will only require you to stop using the hot baths frequently.
The researchers advised men who wished to conceive to treat their body like a temple. This can easily be done by eating well, getting enough sleep and generally taking good care of yourself.
There was a study which was conducted in which 11 infertile men were asked to stop taking the hot baths. Amazingly, 5 of these men showed an increase in sperm count after a period of three months.
The other 6 who didn’t’t show any change in sperm production or motility were exposed to tobacco. Therefore, we should avoid hot baths if we want to increase our sperm count.

Do Phones Affect Sperm?
Introduction
In recent years, there has been growing concern over the potential health risks associated with mobile phone use. One of the areas of concern is the potential effect of mobile phone radiation on sperm health. While the evidence on this subject is still preliminary, there is growing evidence that mobile phone radiation could have an effect on sperm health. This paper will explore the current research on the potential effects of mobile phone radiation on sperm health and discuss the implications of this research.
Body
The potential effects of mobile phone radiation on sperm health have been studied for several years, with most studies focusing on the effects of long-term exposure to mobile phone radiation. Several studies have found that long-term exposure to mobile phone radiation can lead to a decrease in sperm motility, sperm concentration, and sperm morphology. In addition, some studies have found an increase in the number of sperm with abnormal morphology.
Other studies have found that mobile phone radiation can also lead to oxidative stress in the testes, which can damage sperm and increase the risk of infertility. Some studies have also found that mobile phone radiation can lead to DNA damage in sperm cells, which can lead to fertility problems.
While the research on this subject is still in its early stages, it is clear that there is growing evidence that mobile phone radiation can have an effect on sperm health. As such, it is important to be aware of the potential risks associated with mobile phone radiation and to take steps to reduce exposure whenever possible.
Conclusion
In conclusion, there is growing evidence that mobile phone radiation can have an effect on sperm health. Further research is needed to better understand the potential risks associated with mobile phone radiation and to determine the best ways to reduce exposure. In the meantime, it is important to be aware of the potential risks and to take steps to reduce exposure whenever possible.
