Stress can reduce sperm and semen
quality, according to research conducted at Columbia University. The
study, published in the journal Fertility and Sterility, surveyed
data on 193 men (aged 38-49) between 2005-2008.
Researchers assessed the participants'
levels of stress in several spheres of life and then took semen
samples from the men. The samples were analyzed for semen
concentration, sperm shape and sperm movement.
The team found that the men who showed
two or more stressful life events in the past year had lower sperm
quality than men who did not experience any stressful life events.
"Our research suggests that men's
reproductive health may also be affected by their social
environment," said study co-author Teresa Janevic.
According to the American Society for
Reproductive Medicine, the male is the sole contributor to
infertility in 40 percent of infertile couples.
