CHOOSING THE RIGHT CLINIC — THE KEY TO SUCCESS
What to do,
if conception does not occur?
The male factor of infertility must be ruled out first.
This is accessible and does not require complex equipment.
Nevertheless,
sperm should be examined only in a modern,
reliable laboratory,
in a clinic that possesses the full range of assisted reproductive technologies and experience in their successful application.
It is better not to postpone having children!
Over the last 50 years, the concentration of sperm in the seminal fluid of the average man has decreased by 2 times. The characteristics of normal sperm are continually decreasing AROUND THE WORLD.
Today, according to WHO data, 20 million sperm per 1 ml is considered normal for fertile men.
Ten years ago, this figure was three times higher.
Modern living conditions reduce the likelihood of conception,
and personal age also does not add any points.
Each year further decreases the already low reproduction rate.
Пик фертильности у мужчин и у женщин приходится на 24 года.
ЭФФЕКТИВНОЕ ЗАЧАТИЕ
К моменту созревания яйцеклетки надо иметь полноценные зрелые сперматозоиды.
Полный цикл созревания длится около 72 суток,
а дозревание проходит в течение 72 часов.
Двух – трехдневное воздержание накануне предполагаемой овуляции и здоровый образ жизни в течение предыдущих 2 с половиной – трех месяцев – это именно то,
что нужно для желанного и здорового зачатия.
Половое общение в период овуляции должно проходить каждый день или чуть реже.
More than once a day to strain is also not worth it.
THERMOMETER IN PANTS
The temperature regime of the surrounding environment is of great importance.
The sex glands (testicles) are not accidentally placed outside the body by evolution.
This "inconvenient" location is due to the temperature at which sperm matures,
which is significantly lower than body temperature.
Due to the overheating of the sex glands, it is dangerous to have prolonged driving,
wear tight briefs,
work in hot workshops,
and,
especially,
indulge in the sauna.
Banalty flu with a temperature of 38-39°C leads to qualitative and quantitative indicators of sperm dropping for 3 months,
and then another 2 months for recovery.
Of course,
conception might occur even with a 40-degree fever,
but such conditions can't be called optimal.
MEDICATIONS HIT BELOW THE BELT
Among the drugs
that clearly and strongly reduce the quality of sperm are the cytostatics used in cancer treatments.
Some pain relievers are also dangerous,
антибактериальные нитрофуранового ряда (их применяют при лечении заболеваний почек и мочевыводящих путей). Сульфаниламидные препараты, в том числе и те, что продаются без рецепта. Глюкокортикостероиды, применяемые при бронхиальной астме и аллергии, однозначно вредны для сперматогенеза. Крайне нежелательно применение некоторых гипотензивных лекарств, но не всех. Так что у гипертоников есть место для маневра.
It is already well known the harm to male fertility from drugs in the series of hormonal steroids that are used for rapid muscle gain.
Drugs that contain the male hormone testosterone deserve special attention. Some "specialists" prescribe them to "improve spermatogenesis". In reality, this is fraught with the effect of pharmacological castration. When the level of testosterone in the blood increases, the brain gives a command to the endocrine system, including the sex glands, to stop its production.
For normal sperm production, the level of testosterone in the reproductive glands must be 10-20 times higher than in the blood.
Such concentration can never be achieved with pills or injections.
It is impossible to "fundamentally improve spermatogenesis" with medication.
The disease that caused its deterioration needs to be treated.
However,
this is not always necessary.
Modern reproductive technologies allow a man with even a few viable sperm cells to have a genetically related child.
Moreover, the chances of success can be as high as those for men with excellent indicators.
OTHER HARMFUL FACTORS
Stress leads to a sharp deterioration in spermatogenesis. This is easily explained: corticosteroid hormones, which are produced by the adrenal glands in stressful situations, are very similar in structure to sex hormones, but have a pronounced anti-androgenic (suppressing sperm formation) effect. No wonder many animal species do not reproduce in captivity. Therefore, fight against problems in the family and at work.
Иногда при стрессе может резко повыситься половое возбуждение из-за выброса в кровь большой дозы адреналина, но затем фертильность может упасть до нуля на долгий срок.
Химическое загрязнение — еще одна угроза для сперматозоидов.
Так,
фталаты,
которые содержатся в пластиковых бутылках при длительном хранении могут переходить в пищу,
обладают ярко выраженным угнетающим действием.
Под подозрением у специалистов — химикаты,
входящие в состав моющих средств,
некоторые пищевые консерванты,
стабилизаторы.
Sometimes, under stress, sexual arousal can sharply increase due to a large dose of adrenaline being released into the blood, but subsequently, fertility may drop to zero for a long period.
Chemical contamination is another threat to sperm.
For example,
phthalates,
which are found in plastic bottles, can leach into food during prolonged storage,
having a pronounced suppressive effect.
Also under suspicion by experts are chemicals
found in detergents,
certain food preservatives,
stabilizers.
Talking about insecticides and pesticides is unnecessary. Any radiation energy and microwaves are hazardous to potential fatherhood and lethal to spermatogenesis in doses exceeding the norms.
Alcohol in moderate doses relieves stress,
but abuse definitely has a negative effect on the sexual sphere,
causing inhibition of testosterone production by Leydig cells,
which are located in the testes.
Chronic beer consumption has especially suppressive effects.
Of course,
nicotine and any poisoning are harmful,
например грибами.
The first and primary method of examining a man in an infertile marriage is an analysis
called a SPERMOGRAM.
The patient provides a semen sample at least 2 times with a few weeks' interval.
The results are analyzed by your doctor,
and a treatment strategy or additional examination is selected.
A reduction in the number of sperm is called oligozoospermia.
This happens due to a decrease in testicular function or unilateral obstruction of the vas deferens.
A decrease in the number of motile sperm — asthenozoospermia. Motility is the most important characteristic of sperm quality.
Normally, more than half of all sperm should move forward or,
at the very least,
chaotically.
Sperm morphology shows
what percentage of them have a full structure (normally, at least 30% of all sperm should be fully structured).
The reduction in the number of normally structured sperm decreases the probability of conception. This condition is called teratozoospermia.
Agglutination,
or the clumping together of sperm cells,
is normally absent.
Its presence significantly reduces sperm motility and the likelihood of conception.
The leukocyte count in the ejaculate should not exceed 10 million per milliliter.
An increase in the number of leukocytes may indicate an inflammatory process.
Today, thanks to Assisted Reproductive Technologies (ART), even a man with very modest sperm counts can become a father. The key is to choose the correct treatment strategy.
Practically insurmountable forms of infertility do not exist today...
