To achieve a smooth and healthy pregnancy, both sperm and egg must be ensured to be normal. Some couples who have been preparing for pregnancy for a period of time may not be able to conceive as planned, so they are worried and want to learn more about various aspects, such as sperm problems. So, how many sperm can be used to conceive?
Under normal circumstances, men of reproductive age ejaculate around 300 million at once, of which more than 70% are normal sperm. To conceive healthily, it is only when the vitality, morphology, and chromosomes of the sperm are normal. With the help of external forces, sperm enter the fallopian tubes, and eventually one of the sperm completes this task. If the sperm count is not large enough, it is difficult to achieve the goal of pregnancy.
If it is caused by a low sperm survival rate, then it is necessary to pay attention to improving the sperm survival rate and make better supplements during pregnancy preparation. Especially zinc element is very important. Zinc deficiency not only leads to a decrease in sperm vitality and quality, resulting in a decrease in sperm survival rate, but also leads to a decline in male immunity. Therefore, it is necessary for men to take zinc supplements before pregnancy to regulate sperm, improve sperm vitality and quality, which is very helpful for a smooth pregnancy.
Additionally, it should be noted that there is a relationship between fertility and sperm motility and quality. For example, for men who frequently engage in sexual activity, if their sperm density is not high, they can still impregnate their wives. However, there are also men with high sperm density but poor sperm quality, which can also affect healthy conception.
