How to Regain Sperm After a Vasectomy Reversal
Increasing sperm count is vital after a vasectomy reversal. The higher the sperm count, the better chance for pregnancy. It is important to take daily steps to maintain a healthy lifestyle that can promote higher sperm counts.
Instructions
Get a semen analysis and evaluation. This will tell whether the sperm has high numbers, low numbers or abnormal numbers. You can go to the doctor's office and give a semen sample using a private room for privacy, or place the semen sample into a cup at home, then take it to the doctor's office within an hour (to maintain semen freshness). Take a daily multivitamin made for men. This vitamin needs to include selenium, zinc and folic acid. This is important to maintain optimum sperm production. Eat fruits and vegetables as a daily part of your diet. Fruits and vegetables are rich in antioxidants, which are important to overall sperm growth. Exercise regularly. A healthy lifestyle can promote a healthy sperm count. Reduce exposure to hot baths or showers, as the hot water can inhibit the production of sperm and reduce the sperm count. Instead, take lukewarm baths and showers. Utilize hormone treatments that can increase sperm count. Make an appointment with your doctor to talk over your options.
