Male Fertility Is Declining—and Few Know Why

Infertility isn’t just a female issue. Sperm counts are dropping globally. These 6 lesser-known factors could be affecting men’s fertility more than they realize.

1. Chronic Stress Impacts Sperm Quality

Long-term stress alters hormone levels and sperm production. Cortisol, the stress hormone, can reduce testosterone and impair fertility.

2. Exposure to Plastics and Chemicals

Everyday products like food containers and personal care items contain endocrine disruptors like BPA and phthalates, which reduce sperm quality.

3. Too Much Screen Time and Heat from Laptops

Resting laptops on laps or too much exposure to heat lowers sperm motility. Sperm prefer cooler environments to develop properly.

4. Poor Sleep Reduces Testosterone

Sleep is when the body repairs—and produces testosterone. Less than 6 hours of sleep per night can negatively affect sperm count.

5. Nutritional Deficiencies in Zinc and Folate

Zinc and folate are essential for sperm production. Low levels, often due to poor diet, can impact both sperm count and shape.

6. Overuse of Testosterone Supplements

Ironically, taking external testosterone can shut down natural sperm production. Many men unknowingly harm fertility by using these for energy or muscle gains.
