1. YOU MANAGE STRESS WELL

Stress can affect the quality of your semen. Stress reduces the sperm concentration in the semen. You are more likely to have abnormal sperm when you are stressed out. Managing stress by sleeping and getting good rest helps you get healthy semen.

  1. YOU HAVE A LEAN MIDSECTION

You have to watch your waist because carrying too much weight around your midsection isn’t good for your sperm. Men with a waist circumference of 40 inches or greater have been found to have lower sperm concentrations.

  1. YOU DON’T SMOKE

Your chances of having a healthy sperm are high if you are not a smoker. Smoking isn’t good for the sperm as it reduces sperm count and affects the DNA that your semen carries.

  1. YOU EAT LOTS OF FISH

Men who are fish lovers generally have healthy semen. Research has found that men who eat more fish generally have a 65% greater sperm concentration than men who rarely eat fish. Fish is rich in omega-3s which plays a part in sperm production.

  1. YOU RARELY EAT JUNK FOOD

Men who rarely eat junk foods have better semen than those who eat junk foods. This is because eating processed meat and junk food damages the quality of the sperm. So before you eat that junk food, always remember it makes your sperm unhealthy.

  1. YOU DON’T WEAR TIGHT UNDERWEAR

It’s fashionable for men to wear tight underwear but research has found that men who wear tight underwear are more likely to have low-motile sperm count. Wearing tight underwear increases scrotal temperature which may hinder sperm production.

  1. YOU DON’T KEEP YOUR PHONE IN YOUR POCKET

Men who rarely keep their phones in their trouser pocket are more likely to have better semen than men who keep phones in their trouser pockets. This is because radiation from your phone can affect your sperm count.

  1. YOU EXERCISE REGULARLY

Exercise is good for the health of your semen. Researchers have found that men who exercise regularly have a sperm concentration that was 73% higher than guys who don’t exercise. Regular exercise helps prevent free radicals from damaging the sperm cells.
