In order to conceive healthy and intelligent babies, young couples nowadays prepare for pregnancy in advance. As the name suggests, preparing for pregnancy means preparing to conceive. During the preparation period, taking care of the body before conception can better ensure the health of the baby. During the preparation period for pregnancy, both men and women should take good care of their bodies and pay more attention to their dietary and lifestyle habits. So, can men drink alcohol while preparing for pregnancy?
Can men drink alcohol while preparing for pregnancy
Both men and women should strictly control smoking and alcohol during the preparation period for pregnancy. Drinking a large amount of alcohol during the preparation period can lead to alcohol poisoning, testicular atrophy, and serious decline in sperm quality. During the conception process, most sperm can hardly reach the position of the egg normally, and a small amount can reach the male due to energy depletion and lack of ability to enter the male body, leading to male infertility. It can also lead to a decrease in sperm count, which can easily cause fetal abnormalities.
Can men drink traditional Chinese medicine when preparing for pregnancy
We need to clarify that in general, the traditional Chinese medicine taken by the man will not have any impact on the fetus. The main reason is that traditional Chinese medicine has no side effects on the body itself, and it is the medicine taken by the man. Therefore, as long as it is for the health of the body at that time, it will not have any impact.
What needs to be said here is that no matter what the situation was before pregnancy, when you are pregnant, you should have a check-up. When there are no problems with the check-up, the most important thing is to relax and not think about things like this, which puts too much pressure on your mind. If you are really worried, you can go to the hospital regularly for check ups and use B-ultrasound to constantly monitor your child's growth status. However, as mentioned above, when pregnant, there should be no pressure and maintaining a good mood is the most crucial thing for a good pregnancy.
A small drink brings joy, while a big drink harms the body is a well-known proverb. Drinking alcohol may be unavoidable in many daily life and work situations, but it is important to be careful not to drink during the preconception period. I believe everyone can understand this reason. Even after the preconception period, it is important to pay attention to the amount of alcohol consumed. Drinking too much can not only harm the body, but also delay work and bring disputes to the family.
