When you want to increase your sperm count, you can try a number of things. The simplest way is to add certain foods to your diet. Those foods will offer other health benefits along with increasing your sperm count. Keep reading to discover more ways to produce more sperm without having to make huge changes to your lifestyle.
Just by spending more time doing exercise and eating all the right stuff, you will manage to produce more sperm.
Poor diet is the number one reason why men have fertility issues. Eating processed food is never going to help you produce more sperm. Be sure to include whole, unprocessed foods in your diet – go for fish fillets, steak, nuts and plenty of vegetables such as cabbage, broccoli, asparagus, Brussels sprouts, citrus fruits, and berries. Take steps to minimize your exposure to heavy metals. Drink green tea as well to increase energy levels and improve blood circulation.
Food rich in amino acids, vitamins, trace elements, and vitaminoids help a lot in improving sperm mobility, quality, and shape. You need to learn which foods contain these micronutrients to understand how to produce more sperm. Here is a list of 10 foods loaded with sperm-producing nutrients.
It works as a powerful aphrodisiac because it contains L-Arginine, an amino acid that helps improve the intensity of your orgasm and improves your sperm count as well. Do not eat too much of it or you will gain weight.
Oysters are loaded with zinc that helps improve testosterone levels that in turn improves sperm production and its overall quality. An increase in testosterone levels will boost libido and help you derive more pleasure from sexual encounters.
Eggs contain vitamin E and protein that are essential for healthy and strong sperm. Eating eggs will also reduce the effect of free radicals that kill sperm.
Bananas are extremely beneficial for anyone trying to discover how to produce more sperm. Eating bananas is healthy because of the presence of bromelain that is responsible for increasing libido. They will increase your stamina as well mainly because they contain vitamin B.
Eating leafy green vegetables such as spinach provides your body with folic acid that prevents damage to sperm cells. Damaged sperm cannot reach an egg and even if they do, they may fail to fertilize it. Folate helps prevent these chromosomal abnormalities.
Used for centuries to treat physical ailments such as respiratory infections and heart problems, garlic is equally beneficial for your sexual health. It acts as an aphrodisiac and boosts sperm volume, which is mainly due to the presence of a compound called allicin.
Asparagus is loaded with vitamin C that prevents damage to sperm cells and reduce the effects of free radicals to improve overall sperm quality.
Adding walnuts to your diet will provide your body with omega-3 fatty acids that improve sperm count and increase blood flow to your penis.
Carrots are a rich source of vitamin A that help improves sperm motility and production. Red bell peppers, oatmeal, and dried apricots are also some great sources of vitamin A.
Pumpkin seeds work because they contain phytosterols that trigger testosterone production. By regulating testosterone production, pumpkin seeds help improve your sperm count as well as semen volume.
Your sperm develop optimally between 29℃ and 35℃. The production of sperm will slow down significantly with temperature inside your testicles being higher than 36℃. You need to understand that the process of sperm production (spermiogenesis) is extremely sensitive to temperature, hormones, resource availability, and other environmental factors.
Take steps to minimize your scrotum's exposure to heat.
Getting lots of high quality sleep is important for your sexual performance because testosterone levels increase when you are in the REM dream phase. So, how to produce more sperm? Just be sure to take at least seven hours of sleep every night. To sleep better, you need to engage in high intensity exercise and train large muscle groups. You should train your quadriceps, glutes, chest, and back through exercises like dead lifts, squats, pull ups, and bench press to improve the levels of male sex hormone.
A healthy male with no fertility issue typically release 300-500 million sperm when he ejaculates. Only hundreds of these spermatozoa can survive in the acidic environment of the vagina. It takes time for your sperm to mature, so it is important to masturbate less and engage in sex with your partner. Sexual intercourse with your partner produces more sperm mainly because of the stimulation of nerves across sensory systems.
Some studies have found that electromagnetic radiation emitted by mobiles may affect the health of your sperm. The best solution is to avoid keeping your mobile in your trousers pocket; instead, keep it in your jacket pocket
Avoid alcohol intake, stop smoking, and never use illicit drugs to limit your exposure to toxins. You should also stay away from recreational drugs because they can lower libido and limit blood flow to your penis.
Also, limit your exposure to lead, heavy metals, and chemical solvents to prevent damage to sperm cells.
While trying other ways of how to produce more sperm, you can also take fertility supplement to increase the overall health of your sperm. You can take supplements that contain vitamins B, C, D, A, and E, as well as zinc and folic acid.
Staying active and maintaining a balanced diet will go a long way in keeping your body weight in check. Being overweight will affect libido and reduce production of new sperm cells.

Be younger than 40. Although sperm banks and fertility clinics all have slightly different policies in terms of sperm donor qualifications, almost all require that you be younger than 40 years old. [1]

Some males produce completely healthy sperm beyond the age of 40, but many have lower sperm counts and reduced sperm motility, which makes it less likely to lead to impregnation. Lifestyle, diet and overall health are sometimes better indicators of sperm health than chronological age.

The age limit for some facilities can be as low as 35 years.
At the other end of the spectrum, the minimum age requirement is usually either 19 or 20 years.
Male sperm donors are usually paid between $50-100 USD per viable sample.

Apply only if you're at least average height. In addition to age, there are height restrictions of who can donate sperm in the U.S. and many other countries. Shorter people don't have more issues with their sperm compared to tall people, but the recipients of the sperm almost always request taller donors, so the sperm banks and fertility clinic comply with their wishes. Many facilities require that their sperm donors be between 5'10" and 6'2", although others maintain that you must be at least 5'7" to qualify. [2]

Short height is often a function of genetics, although environmental factors (poor nutrition as a child, infections, exposure to toxins) can play a significant role also.
Taller children tend to fit in better among their peers (assuming they're not giants) and eventually have a higher probability of success with dating, marriage and mating. [4]

Realize that education often matters. Obviously many people who don't attend university or college are highly intelligent or even geniuses, but almost all sperm banks and fertility clinics require proof of enrollment or completion of post-secondary education. [5]

Research source

In fact, some sperm banks only accept donors who are graduates of Ivy League schools and then market that information to justify their higher costs. Regardless, if you are not formerly educated in some capacity, there's virtually no chance of being accepted as a sperm donor.

Perhaps interestingly, university and college grades or performance almost never matter to sperm banks or fertility clinics (nor other achievements that require intelligence), it's just the admission and/or completion of a program that matter.
Between 50-80% percent of sperm within a sample of ejaculate do not survive the freezing process at sperm banks and fertility clinics.

Be prepared to make a commitment. Almost no sperm banks or fertility clinics accept donors who have the intent of going through the process only once. Instead, most want a commitment in terms of frequency of visits (weekly or twice-weekly) and time (1-year contracts are common). [6]

Research source

Most companies feel that commitment to their timetables represents stability, plus they have the opportunity to monitor and compare sperm samples for quality and evidence of poor health or bad lifestyle changes. For example, blood and sperm samples are routinely screened for illicit drug use, which can alter and damage sperm.

All sorts of hair and eye colors are encouraged, with the possible exception of red hair at some clinics. It appears that people who buy donated sperm prefer red hair the least.
Because Caucasian (light-skinned people) tend to use donated sperm the most, Caucasian sperm donors represent the majority. However, in some geographic markets, African Americans and Asian Americans may be in high demand. [7]

Be healthy. Sperm banks and fertility clinics screen for health issues and sexual preference, or at least sexual practices. Males who have hereditary diseases are excluded, as are those with chronic debilitating diseases (such as diabetes, cancer or chronic fatigue), due to the negative impact on sperm production and motility. You also cannot have any exposure to the following infectious diseases: HIV, hepatitis B and C, HTLV, syphilis, genital herpes and/or genital warts. [8]

Blood samples are routinely taken for examination prior to acceptance.
At sperm banks, sperm health is often defined as a sperm count of at least 70 million/ml, at least 70% motility and at least 60% normal in appearance (morphology).
As a general rule, sperm health in sperm donors needs to be better than average because some sperm die or lose their motility in the freezing and thawing processes.
Common hereditary diseases include cystic fibrosis, sickle cell anemia, hemophilia and inflammatory arthritis.

Pass the screening and interview process first. After meeting the initial requirements of age, height, health and sexual practices, sperm donor candidates then progress to the screening and interview process in order to substantiate their claims and get a better feel for their personality and willingness to make a commitment. If you haven't already filled one out, you'll need to complete a thorough medical history questionnaire of not just your own, but also your immediate family. The questionnaire is followed sometimes by a personal interview and then blood and semen samples. If accepted a legally binding contract has to be signed.

People who are adopted are often disqualified from being a sperm donor because their family history cannot be substantiated or verified.
Mental health can also sometimes be an issue because some conditions, such as schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, may have genetic links.
Sometimes multiple samples are needed to best establish sperm count and motility rates.

Make an effort to provide a good sample. Because your sperm count, motility and overall morphology is a crucial aspect of being accepted as a sperm donor, take it seriously and try to give the best sample you can. Donors are typically asked to abstain from ejaculation (from sex or masturbation) for at least 2 days (sometimes up to 5 days) before giving a sperm sample in order to get the highest counts possible. Prior to giving a sperm sample, get a good night's sleep, avoid alcohol and cigarette smoke, drink plenty of water and eat a nutritious meal.

Supplements that may help improve the health of your sperm include zinc, selenium, folic acid, vitamin E, vitamin C, coQ10, and L-carnitine. Taking a combination of vitamin E, vitamin C, and coQ10 may be especially helpful for increasing your sperm count. [9]

Most sperm banks and fertility clinics ask for weekly sperm deposits because it can take as many as 8 inseminations for a person to become pregnant.

Learn some tips to ejaculate while in clinical settings. To ensure that it's your sperm sample, most sperm banks and fertility clinics require you to ejaculate while on their premises. You will be in a private room alone to provide your sample. Clinical settings are not known for their sexual atmosphere, so you'll hav
