According to the Mayo Clinic, one of the
world’s largest medical research groups, the causes of male infertility
come under three broad categories; medical causes, environmental
factors and lifestyle.
The following are the other factors that may destroy your fertility:
- Exposure to lead or other heavy metals
- Exposure to radiation or X-rays
- Overheating the testicles through frequent use of saunas or hot tubs
- Sitting for long periods, wearing tight clothing or working on a laptop computer for long stretches of time
- Use of anabolic steroids taken to stimulate muscle strength and growth can cause the testicles to shrink and sperm production to decrease
- Use of cocaine or marijuana may temporarily reduce the number and quality of your sperm as well
- Drinking alcohol can lower testosterone levels, cause erectile dysfunction and decrease sperm production.
- Liver disease caused by excessive drinking also may lead to fertility problems.
- Tobacco smoking
- Emotional stress
- Obesity can impair fertility
