Many couples often think that preparing for pregnancy is just something that women need to do, but in fact, preparing for pregnancy is something that both partners need to work together on. In order to have a healthy baby, men need to make a lot of careful preparations before getting pregnant. So, what preparations do men need to make before getting pregnant?
1. Quit smoking and drinking. Long term smoking and drinking can cause serious damage to men's health, especially affecting testicular health, reducing sperm vitality, leading to sperm dysfunction such as azoospermia, sperm weakness, sperm deformity, etc., which can easily lead to male infertility. Therefore, it is recommended that men preparing for pregnancy start quitting smoking and drinking six months in advance, gradually adjusting their bodies to reduce the impact of smoking and drinking on their bodies and sperm.
2. Maintain a balanced diet. Men with balanced nutrient intake have better sperm quality, while men with poor nutrient intake have poorer sperm quality. This is because sufficient nutrition can ensure men's physical health and normal regulation of hormones, maintain the normal function of male testicles, and improve sperm quality.
3. Maintain good living habits. Men should exercise daily to enhance their physical fitness, promote metabolism and hormone regulation, promote testicular blood circulation, and improve sperm production and quality. Going to bed and getting up early every day, avoiding staying up late, and getting enough sleep are essential for maintaining a healthier body and sperm quality.
