"Give up all grains, and by the way, corn is not a vegetable." (38:17, Dr. Cridennda)

“Many women and many men who have experienced sexual abuse, to many other things, it cuts off a part of our body and it lives in our body. It gets in the way of fully expressing themselves sexually because they have trauma in their body.” (31:06, Dr. Denise)

And then try to lift, sip the water up the straw by lifting your pelvic floor muscles up, up, up.

In the wider context of fertility and fertility struggles, men can sometimes be overlooked.

 

On today’s episode of Fundamentally Fertile, Dr. Susan aims to reverse this trend and put men’s health back in the picture. Dr. Susan speaks with Dr. Paul Turek, a renowned expert in reproductive urology who conducts research about men’s health and fertility. The two cover a wide range of topics, from how men can improve their fertility to what lifestyle factors can change sperm count levels.

 

Dr. Turek also discusses how sperm levels are a biomarker for overall men’s health, a theory which he was one of the first people to conceptualize and advance. This has led to a revolution in healthcare for men, helping men to reset their bodies and have longer, healthier lives.

 

Tune in to this episode to find out how stress impacts men’s fertility, what taking soft and hard drugs and steroids can do to men’s health, and whether or not cycling is bad for the testicles and sperm count. Don’t forget to share and comment on this episode for the chance to win a bottle of Dr. Turek’s male antioxidant formula.

 

 

Key Topics and Takeaways:

 

• Overall male fertility levels aren’t changing, but our awareness of male fertility is.
• Male fertility can be affected by the environment during their first 12 weeks of development in utero.
• Intensive exercise can affect sperm counts, but the sperm count can return if exercise levels drop to moderate intensity.
• Chronic, low-level stress over time has a bigger negative impact on male fertility than short periods of high stress.
• Sperm levels are a biomarker of overall health.
• It can be a good idea for men to take dietary supplements to increase the chances of conception.
