How to check the quality of sperm
So, how should sperm quality be checked?
The poor sperm quality is the main cause of infertility. Although normal and mature men ejaculate at one time tens of millions or even about 200 million sperm, most of these sperm have lost vitality in the acidic environment of female reproductive tract and died.Generally speaking, the life of sperm in the vagina does not exceed 8 hours, and only a small number of sperm is linked and continued to move forward.
How to check sperm quality?
1. Semen.The 6th to 5 ml on the 6th day after 5 days after the essence is not discharged, usually no less than 1.5 ml, which is regarded as normal sperm volume; otherwise, it can be regarded as a reduction in semen.
2. PH degree.Normal fresh semen is slightly alkaline, and the pH value is between 7.2 and 8.9, with an average of 7.8.When sperm activity and metabolic rates are decreased, alkali is enhanced, and alkali is counterproductive.For a long time, fresh semen is slightly acidified, which will affect sperm vitality.Therefore, check semen must be fresh semen, and it should not exceed 1 hour.
3. Semen color and viscosity.Normal semen is gray -white jelly. Generally, after 10 minutes, it is often liquefied into a transparent liquid. If it is too long (about 1 month), the semen that is discharged for the first time after the sperm is not discharged is light yellow, which is also normal.
Sperm quality inspection is the most basic form of inspection and the most important, because the poor sperm quality is one of the main reasons for infertility. In addition to checking in time in time, it is necessary to pay more attention. Sperm quality is affected by many factors.Such as tobacco, alcohol, drugs, radiation, etc., so pay more attention. At the same time, if sperm quality inspection is found to be poor, the sperm quality should be treated in time.
