Alcohol and male fertility, and its effects on sperm production are not what most man who have infertility problems want to hear. Booze most certainly does have a negative effect on man’s reproductive abilities. It does effect male fertility and that is the bottom line.
A big question that is often asked by men who are seemingly desperate to father a child, but who are not so eager to give up booze, is how much are they allowed to drink. The answer is a simple one. The more alcohol a man consumes, it will have a greater impact on his ability to produce quality sperm. Quite probably having 2 – 3 bottles/glasses of lager or wine a week shouldn’t have too much of an effect, on most men.
The effects of drinking alcohol causes a noticeable decrease in sperm count, as well as contributing to an increase in abnormal sperm and lowering the proportion of motile sperm. Alcohol also drastically inhibits the bodies absorption of zinc, which is one of the most important minerals relating to male fertility.
Zinc is found in high quantities in sperm. It is a particularly important mineral in the formation of the sperm cell’s outer layer and tail. Zinc deficiency has been detected in men who have low sperm counts. Sperm cells need strong tails for good motility (the ability to move and swim and penetrate an egg). Alcohol consumption has therefore been linked to the production of abnormal sperm cells with deformed heads and tails. Abnormal sperm are less likely to be able to fertilize an egg and more likely to create a non-viable embryo, which may result in early pregnancy loss.
The alcohol male infertility question is something that many men struggling to father a child need to deal with. Quite frankly any man struggling with fertility problems needs to sort out his priorities. He needs to look himself in the mirror and ask what is more important the joy of fathering a child or the short term enjoyment that is provided by booze.
If you have been diagnosed as having infertility problems and are serious about dealing with the issue, the smart choice is to totally give up alcohol. The adverse effects that booze has on both quality and quantity of sperm production cannot be emphasised enough. If you have a low sperm count or poor motility/morphology most men have every chance of beating the problem if they make the right choices.
