THE BARREN MAN – IMPROVING A LOW SPERM COUNT
Certain general measures may also help to improve a low sperm count. These are for the man to drink and smoke less, to wear loose underpants (so that the testicles are no longer held up close to his crutch), and to know the best time during the woman’s menstrual cycle to have intercourse for a pregnancy to occur.
Until about 1970 infertile couples whose inability to have a child was solely due to the husband’s very low sperm count or to his complete lack of spermatozoa were able to adopt a child relatively easily. Since 1970 this has changed in most developed nations. The numbers of children available for adoption have dropped very considerably, so that a delay of up to five years is usual before a suitable baby is found. This is because women avoid pregnancy by using efficient contraceptives and because legal abortion is more readily available. Ten years ago a young unmarried woman who became pregnant and did not wish, or was not able, to marry the man who made her pregnant, either sought a dangerous (or a safe, but expensive) illegal abortion, or had the baby. Many women preferred to have the baby and most surrendered it for adoption. Today, with legal, safe abortion, fewer unmarried women continue with the pregnancy and of those who do most keep the baby. Society has ceased to be so censorious about unmarried mothers and the sanctions against them have diminished.
