Low Sperm Volume Treatment With Chinese Medicine
In hopes of achieving a healthy pregnancy, many men come to find out they struggle with fertility issues of their own. Low sperm count can be an extremely frustrating thing to deal with, and it can affect men of all ages and demographics. The good news is that low sperm count can be treated without medical assistance. There are a number of different changes men can make to their diet and routine to increase sperm count in a relatively short period of time.
This article will dive into the causes and effects of low sperm count, along with the best natural ways to increase sperm volume.
Can a Man with Low Sperm Volume get a Woman Pregnant?
A man with low sperm volume can still get a woman pregnant, although history would show that the chances are very low. Although conception through sex is the almost always the first way a couple will try and get pregnant, there are other proven ways to get pregnant. In vitro fertilization (IVF) or sperm donation (donor insemination) are two of the more popular proven alternatives to conceiving naturally.
It should be mentioned that despite how frustrating low sperm count can be, men should not expect to increase sperm volume overnight. This is something backed by hundreds of studies, that show the average sperm regeneration time to be 74 days. Sperm production happens around the clock in the male reproductive system, and can be impacted by a number of factors:
- Frequency of ejaculation
- Age
- Diet
- Type and frequency of exercise
Overall, the sperm regeneration process simply takes too long for the volume of sperm to grow overnight. In addition to that, the factors that impact sperm volume are based on extended periods of time, not on a day-to-day basis.
Causes of Low Sperm Volume – Traditional Chinese Medicine
The causes in specific cases of low sperm volume can often vary. However, there are a few causes that seem to prevail in men more than others. The following list details each of Traditional Chinese Medicine’s explanations for low sperm volume.
- Kidney Weakness (Asthenia): Kidneys are said to control the pre-natal essence of Jing in the body, or in other words, what controls the body’s ability to reproduce effectively. To restore strength, and ultimately the pre-natal essence to the Kidneys, an excess of pathogenic factors must be cleared, bringing balance back to the body.
- Liver Qi Stagnation: The liver is a central organ in the body’s reproductive health, and is said to control the smooth flow of Qi or life force in the body. The liver is intimately connected with the kidneys, as it helps control the blood that produces pre-natal essence in the kidneys. Stagnation of Qi in the liver can result in poor blood control and production of semen. Causes of Liver Qi Stagnation vary case-by-case, but are often attributed to social pressures, stress, and frequent sweating.
- Deficiency in Qi and Blood: Qi stagnation in the liver can cause excessive deficiencies of Qi throughout the reproductive system as well as blood stasis, which further blocks the movement of Qi. This can eventually constrict sperm count in the body by cause of abnormal morphology of the veins in testes.
- Blockage of Meridians: Blockage in the meridians can come from an excess of phlegm and dampness, which is often attributed to a weakness of the spleen. This further prohibits a healthy flow of Qi in the body, and ultimately leads to a decreased sperm count.
