Approximately 15% of couples experience the inability to conceive; approx. 1/3 of that figure is due to male infertility. Male infertility may be caused by a low sperm count or decreased motility, a varicocele of the testes, retrogade ejaculation into the bladder or an obstruction of a duct. The most common reason involves the quality and quantity of sperm. Significant research has been done analyzing the reasons why mens sperm counts have decreased in the last half of this century. The findings suggest environmental toxins, pollution, pesticides, fertilizers and estrogens may be the cause. Of 61 studies conducted between 1938 and 1991, it was reported that sperm counts dropped by 50% and semen volume decreased by 20% over fifty years (British Medical Journal, 1992, vol. 305). A study comparing the sperm counts of organic farmers with those that used pesticides concluded that organic farmers had higher sperm density (Infertility, 1987, Vol. 10). There is hope for males with this sperm deficiency. Like the rest of the body, if treated correctly, it can be strengthened and healed. It is important to follow all the dietary recommendation, lifestyle changes and supplements for 3 to 6 months.
