"Men accounting for
growing number of infertility problems"
Clinical observations in recent years have shown
a gradual decline in male fertility in the country,
with four out of 10 cases of infertility being
attributed to men. The reasons behind the problem
are lower sperm counts, higher incidence of
abnormalities in spermatozoa and lower sperm
motility.
According to doctors, one precautionary
measure men can take against infertility is to
increase their intake of foods containing the
anti-oxidants vitamin C and vitamin E.
There are many similar reports coming from
other countries around the world: Research carried
out in Belgium using donated semen revealed that the
percentage of local men producing substandard semen
rose from 5 percent to 40 percent during the 15-year
period between 1980 and 1995.
Doctors gave a lecture on the
influence of the quality of male sperm on test-tube
babies last week in Taipei, as part of the 20th
anniversary of its Center for Reproductive Medicine.
Every milliliter of semen should
have a sperm count of at least 20 million, at least
half of which should exhibit normal movement, and
less than 30 percent of which should demonstrate
abnormalities.
The incidence of sperm levels and quality
considered as substandard was becoming more and more
common, leading to difficulties in couples being
able to conceive naturally. Infertility in Taiwan is
considered an embarrassing problem, and that men
often react negatively when it is suggested the
reason their wife is experiencing trouble getting
pregnant lies with the man.
There are many possible causes of male
infertility, including the presence of heavy metals
such as lead or aluminum in the environment, the
intake of medicines or foods containing female
hormones, or even global warming, all of which could
influence the levels of male hormones in men's
bodies.
