Scrotum Temperature & Acupuncture
Just read a study from the Asian Journal of Andrology on scrotal temperature and sperm counts. To the group with lowered sperm counts and higher scrotal temperature they added acupuncture, and what they found is a scientifically significant number of these men had a lowering of scrotal temperatures and increases in sperm counts. Read study abstract here.
Nutrition affects sertoli cell production, the cells in the testis that produce sperm
Conclusion: foetal to pubertal subnutrition is accompanied by changes in testicular structure and lower Sertoli cell numbers in adult life, strongly suggesting lower daily sperm production.
Male Medical Treatment Compliance: POOR
In my experience, and I know with many of my peers, the major inhibiting factor in the successful treatment of male disorders is treatment compliance. Bottom line, unless something is literally falling off or aesthetically grusome, men most often fall short of finishing a course of recommended treatment. One way of improving fertility/sperm rates, would be to actually complete treatment protocols given by their healthcare provider. I was looking looking through my past treatment schedules, and whether they are dragged in by their girlfriend or wife, or they actually decided on their own to 'check it out', most men stop treatment very early into the program protocol. OK guys, its time to take more responsibility for your health, especially when it is affecting someone you love.
Herbs Helping Men
OK men, I just want you to understand that there is hope out there for many of our ailments. Even though western medical techniques offer little in the way of improving sperm, managing chronic prostate issues, and getting to the bottom of WHY your erections are not what they used to be,...herbal medicine is showing more and more that these alternatives are something worth trying.
Sugar Causes Impotence
Viagra (Sildenafil) stimulates erections primarily by enhancing signaling through the nitric oxide pathway in the penis. This means that we need nitric oxide to obtain and sustain erections. Guess what, Fructose, a simple form of sugar (that is in everything sweet, look at the label) is an inhibitor of nitric oxide. So boyz, the sugar has got to go!
