Dr. He Haochen
The main methods to improve sperm motility include the following: 1. Healthy lifestyle: Engage in regular physical exercise such as swimming, jogging, and other aerobic activities, which help accelerate metabolism and enhance physical fitness. At the same time, ensure adequate rest and sleep, and avoid excessive fatigue. 2. Dietary adjustments: Consume foods rich in nutrients such as zinc, protein, and vitamins, including oysters, lean meat, and legumes, to help improve sperm quality. Avoid excessive alcohol consumption and smoking, as they negatively affect sperm motility. 3. Avoid prolonged cycling: Extended periods of cycling may compress the scrotal area, increasing the temperature of the reproductive organs and impairing sperm motility. 4. Maintain hygiene: Pay attention to personal hygiene and avoid keeping the genital area in a hot, moist environment for prolonged periods.
