If you want to live to her old age, healthy diet, regular exercise or restriction of alcohol and smoking intake are the best things you can do. But scientists In a recent study, they found that there is something else related to life expectancy, and this report will delight in particular men. , The quality of sperm can affect how long you live.
More fruitful men live longer
As part of a study published in Human Reproduction scientists analyzed data from 78,000 men from Denmark from 1965 to 2015. During this period, the participants had the quality of sperm assessed due to the reported increased infertility.
“Previous research has already indicated that Infertility of men and lower sperm quality could be associated with mortality“said Dr. Larka Priskorn, head of the University Hospital in Copenhagen.
Experts have calculated the life expectancy of men according to the quality of their sperm. Found that Persons with a higher total number of sperm that can move or swim (TMC) live longertwo to three years. Men with TMC more than 120 million, which is considered optimal, according to data lived 2.7 years longer than entities with TMC from 0 to 5 million. “The lower the quality of the sperm, the lower the life expectancy is,” Dr. Priskorn added.
Scientists suggest that the fertility evaluation that is usually carried out when men are relatively young by could have been an opportunity to detect the risks of other health problems. “We need to better understand the connection between the quality of the sperm and the overall state of men. This study suggests that we can identify subjects with impaired sperm quality that feels healthy because There is an increased risk of developing certain diseases at a later age“confirmed Dr. Niels Jorgensen, head of the Andrologist of the University Hospital in Copenhagen.

Researchers said that Future studies should focus on diseases depending on the quality of spermas well as on timely indicators that would could be relevant signals of adverse health conditions in less fertile men.
“In this study we have not analyzed whether is the poor quality of sperm associated with earlier death from specific causes such as cancer or heart disease, and we will examine this question in the future. It is crucial for the creation of prevention strategies, “said Jorgensen.
