When you decide to have a baby, it’s important to think about female and male fertility – after all, as the saying goes, it takes two, baby.

Men can do a great deal to improve their chances of conception and boost sperm counts by paying attention to health and lifestyle.

Here is a check-list for men who are trying for a baby with our ten tips to help boost male fertility:

Keep Cool: Men have a higher sperm count when their genitals are kept at a cooler temperature. So stay away from hot tubs, hot showers and tight fitting underwear.

Avoid Alcohol: It lowers men’s sperm count even when men are only drinking small amounts. And stop smoking – it has been shown to reduce both the sperm count and the sperm motility.

Sex: Have it in the morning as research shows that a man’s sperm count is higher at this time so take advantage of it!

Supplement: Take a supplement which contains specific nutrients such as zinc for male reproductive health (more info on Wellman)

Diet: If men are malnourished or not getting enough of the right foods and nutrients their sperm count can suffer.

Workaholic: Fatigue can have an effect on a man’s interest in sex so it is important to try and find a balance.

Toxins: Stay clear of environmental poisons and hazards. These include pesticides/insecticides, organic solvents, lead, ionizing radiation, heavy metals, and toxic chemicals.

Drugs: Even in moderate amounts, for example cannabis can cause a low sperm count, poor sperm speed and increased sperm abnormalities.

Mobile Phones: According to research by scientists in Hungary, men who keep mobile phones switched-on in their trouser pocket or on belts have significantly lowered sperm counts and risk their fertility being cut by up to a third. Also, the sperm’s motility may be affected by long calls. So put down your phone!

Exercise: Swap the exercise bike for the treadmill. The repeated banging of the groin against the bicycle seat can damage critical arteries and nerves.
