With the improvement of living standards and factors such as unhealthy eating habits, more and more people are entering the ranks of obesity. Especially for some men who are full of fish and meat, the tavern is constantly bustling. Soon, a large amount of fat will accumulate on the body, and the weight will increase day by day. But in the stage of wanting a baby after marriage, can a man who is too fat prepare for pregnancy?
Can a man who is too fat prepare for pregnancy
If a man is excessively obese, it is not recommended to enter the preconception plan, as obesity not only increases the incidence of cardiovascular diseases, but also has a significant negative impact on sperm production. Excessive or insufficient fat can disrupt the normal production of sex hormones, leading to a decrease in male sperm count and an increase in the percentage of abnormal sperm.
Men who are too overweight should first enter a weight loss plan to make their weight indicators return to normal before preparing for pregnancy. Men's body mass index should be controlled within the normal range (20-25, calculated by dividing their weight in kilograms by the square of their height in meters). At this time, they are most likely to produce a large amount of high-quality sperm. Beneficial for the quality of pregnancy preparation.
Common weight loss methods for men
1. Change unhealthy lifestyles. Early to bed and early to rise, avoid staying up late, smoke less, drink less, eat less high-fat and high calorie foods, and eat more vegetables and fruits.
2. Dieting to lose weight is not advisable. It is important to develop good eating habits for three meals a day, especially breakfast and lunch, which should not be ignored. If breakfast and lunch are irregular, it can lead to excessive hunger and overeating at night, which in turn produces more fat.
3. Walking is the lowest entry barrier, with minimal sports injuries, and suitable for most people's exercise. And it has a significant effect on weight loss. You can take a ride to work and get off 1 or 2 stops early, so that you can chat with people freely and walk to the office at a speed that won't get out of breath. Remember to straighten your waist and tighten your abdomen when exercising, so that your abdominal muscles can move up!
4. Do not sit in front of the computer for long periods of time. You can take advantage of the opportunity to drink water and walk around the office for 2-3 minutes, while also twisting your waist to burn abdominal fat. You can walk for a longer time at home.
5. Some equipment can be used for exercise to burn abdominal fat and increase muscle mass.
Preparing for pregnancy when overweight is not guaranteed for the health of the baby after pregnancy. High quality pregnancy preparation requires a healthy body with normal indicators. When men are too fat, they often exceed various indicators, so it is best to lose weight in preparation for pregnancy.
