Conquering Infertility: Dr. Alice Domar's Guide to Enhancing Fertility and Coping with Infertility

Even though sperm counts tend to rise in cooler temperatures, only three forms of heat can significantly affect fertility in men, says Samuel Thompson, M.D., of Urology of Indiana, in his article on "The Prevention of Male Fertility." A fever can temporarily reduce a man's sperm count, and the effect may take as long as three months to wear off. Soaking in a bathtub, hot tub, or sauna and also the heat caused by an untreated varicocele is the most common correctable cause of male infertility.`
There is also a common belief that boxers and loose-fitting clothing enables sperm production. But there is no clinical evidence to support the notion, Reuter says.

Maintaining a healthy lifestyle is generally the most important factor affecting male fertility. Reuter offers advice on the following five factors for improving the chances of fatherhood:
 

* Smoking - Smokers often suffer from low sperm counts, decreased motility the   mobility of sperm), and a higher incidence of miscarriages.

* Substance abuse - Cocaine or heavy marijuana use appears to temporarily reduce the number and quality of sperm by as much as 50 percent. Excessive alcohol consumption also can damage sperm.

* Diet - A recent study of 1,558 men showed that men with a high BMI (Body Mass Index) have significantly poorer semen quality (on average 22 percent lower sperm concentrations) than men within the normal weight range.

* Exercise - Moderate exercise can help maintain weight and encourage optimal health. The use of steroids and testosterone supplements, however, can decrease sperm production.

* Stress - Stress can interfere with the production of GnRH, protein hormones released from the hypothalamus, which stimulates sperm production.

As for nutritional needs, a healthy diet is the best way of all to get needed vitamins and minerals, Reuter said, such as selenium and zinc, which have been shown to have a positive effect on sperm production. "Supplements can help, but there have been too few studies isolating them as singular influences on fertility. Nothing beats a balanced diet for absorbing essential nutrients." `
A bowl of cereal for breakfast and a baked potato for lunch could boost your chances of becoming pregnant.

According to researchers from the University of Massachusetts' latest assertions, the body reacts well to increased levels of the vitamin B6, reports the Daily Mail.

Their study found suggested that "maternal vitamin B6 status may influence reproductive events through the entire course of pregnancy, from conception through delivery".

Its reproductive benefits are already well known in medical circles, as women who take B6 supplements while pregnant are believed to be less likely to miscarry and can help to alleviate morning sickness.

Found in foods like potatoes, fortified cereals, bananas, milk, eggs, and poultry, B6 is also thought to play a crucial role in the development of the placenta.
