Coffee is a must-have for modern white-collar workers. When they feel tired, they can work overtime to stay alert. Occasionally taking a break in the coffee shop downstairs from the company can also relax a lot. Many coffee shops have unique styles, and both men and women like to go to the coffee shop to sit and enjoy themselves. Talking about business can also be helpful. However, there are more men, but if men drink coffee frequently, will they become infertile?
Does drinking coffee cause infertility in men
Drinking coffee can lead to oligospermia in men: Coffee men in the office should be careful, as coffee can not only refresh the mind but also cause a decrease in sexual desire. Especially for people with significant emotional fluctuations and easily aroused sympathetic nerves, it is best not to drink caffeinated beverages such as coffee before sex to avoid suppressing the parasympathetic nervous system and reducing sexual desire. Severe cases can lead to infertility.
What are the causes of male infertility
1. Congenital testicular hypoplasia syndrome. Clinical manifestations include breast enlargement, sparse beard and pubic hair, and female body shape such as narrow shoulders and wide buttocks; The testicles are small and soft, with low sexual function and no sperm in the semen. The concentration of pituitary gonadotropins, especially FSH, increases in both plasma and urine, while the plasma testosterone concentration is lower than normal.
2. Cryptorchidism. The scrotum appears empty, and physical examination shows poor development of the scrotum. A smooth oval mass can be palpated in the groin, and in a few patients, the testicles are located in the abdominal cavity. Ultrasound can be used MRI、 Laparoscopic examination. Cryptorchidism should be distinguished from azoospermia.
3. Chronic prostatitis. Their clinical manifestations are very inconsistent, with some patients having significant symptoms but no abnormalities in prostate examination; Some patients have hardened prostate tissue and a large number of white blood cells in prostate fluid, but the symptoms are not obvious. The main symptoms of chronic prostatitis are lower back pain, discomfort in the lower abdomen, perineum, spermatic cord, and testicles, frequent urination, painful urination, burning or incomplete urination in the urethra, and transparent or cloudy viscous secretions in the urethra after defecation or at the end of urination. Many patients experience symptoms of neurasthenia and sexual dysfunction such as headaches, insomnia, nocturnal emissions, and erectile dysfunction.
4. Obstruction of the reproductive tract. The patient has a history of gonorrhea infection, suppurative inflammation, tuberculosis of the reproductive system, and urethral trauma. The epididymis can be found swollen and nodular by physical examination; Thickening or bead changes in the vas deferens and absence of vas deferens. Sexual function and secondary sexual characteristics are normal, and blood hormones are normal. But the semen test showed no sperm, and the testicular biopsy showed good spermatogenic function in the seminiferous tubules. These patients can undergo seminal vesicle and vas deferens angiography, vas deferens and epididymis angiography, urethral angiography, and B-mode ultrasound examination as needed to identify the site of obstruction.
5. Varicocele. Varicocele is a common disease of the male reproductive system. Most patients with varicocele have no obvious symptoms, and some may experience scrotal prolapse and swelling pain. Physical examination can detect varicose veins resembling earthworms, thickening of the spermatic cord, and a positive Valsalva test on color ultrasound can confirm the diagnosis. Semen analysis of patients with varicocele often shows reduced sperm count and decreased sperm motility.
Male infertility is not caused solely by drinking coffee, but also by masturbation and unhealthy dietary habits during childhood. Therefore, when one realizes that something is wrong with oneself, they hope to gradually quit all bad habits, have a balanced diet, sufficient sleep, and a happy and cheerful mood, which can improve the symptoms of infertility.
