The quality of a man’s sperm is a critical factor in the health and well-being of his unborn child. Surprisingly, the genetic content of a man’s sperm can have a negative impact on the baby’s health if it is compromised. In an article by Zarafshan Shiraz of Delhi published in Hindustan Times, it is revealed that certain medical conditions and poor lifestyle choices can negatively impact sperm count or sperm health, affecting the child’s well-being. Dr. Nisha Pansare, Fertility Consultant at Nova IVF Fertility in Pune, highlights some of these causes, including unhealthy eating habits, smoking, alcohol consumption, a sedentary lifestyle, and wearing tight jeans or underwear. To ensure male reproductive health and well-being, Dr. Pansare recommends regular check-ups, managing pre-existing health conditions, and seeking the advice of a fertility consultant before planning a pregnancy. By making small changes to lifestyle, men can ensure their sperm is in good health for the benefit of their future offspring.
