View allHey doc, I've been feeling a bit worried lately. My partner and I have been trying to conceive for a while with no luck. I recently started reading about sperm count issues, and now I'm anxious if that could be my problem. Could you give me some advice on how I might increase my sperm count naturally? Are there lifestyle changes or specific foods that might help? I'd appreciate any guidance you can offer.
Here are some evidence-based ways to increase sperm count: *Lifestyle Changes* 1. *Maintain a healthy weight*: Excess weight can lead to hormonal imbalances, affecting sperm count. 2. *Exercise regularly*: Regular exercise can improve sperm quality and count. 3. *Reduce stress*: High stress levels can negatively impact sperm count. Practice stress-reducing techniques like yoga or meditation. 4. *Get enough sleep*: Aim for 7-8 hours of sleep per night to help regulate hormones and sperm production. *Dietary Changes* 1. *Eat foods rich in antioxidants*: Foods high in antioxidants, such as fruits, vegetables, and nuts, can help protect sperm from damage. 2. *Include zinc-rich foods*: Zinc is essential for sperm production. Include zinc-rich foods like oysters, beef, and chicken in your diet. 3. *Increase omega-3 intake*: Omega-3 fatty acids, found in fatty fish, nuts, and seeds, can help improve sperm quality. *Supplements* 1. *Vitamin D*: Vitamin D deficiency has been linked to low sperm count. Consider taking a vitamin D supplement after consulting with your doctor. 2. *Zinc supplements*: If you're not getting enough zinc from your diet, consider taking a zinc supplement. 3. *Folic acid*: Folic acid can help improve sperm quality and count. *Avoid* 1. *Smoking*: Smoking can significantly reduce sperm count and quality. 2. *Excessive alcohol consumption*: Limit your alcohol intake to moderate levels (1-2 drinks per day). 3. *Tight clothing*: Wearing tight clothing can increase scrotal temperature, potentially harming sperm production. 4. *Hot tubs and saunas*: Avoid frequent use of hot tubs and saunas, as they can increase scrotal temperature.

I'm 34 and have a micropenis can this be treated with medicines or DHT cream? I really don't want surgery or pumps. I'm getting married next year and want to find a solution for this issue.

My report says the ureters are obscured and there's a 5 mm kidney stone. Can a stone this size pass without surgery? What noninvasive tests like CT or MRI should I do to check for obstruction and locate the stone?
A 5mm kidney stone has a good chance of passing on its own, but a CT scan or MRI can help determine if the stone is obstructing the ureter and if further intervention is needed. CT scans are the preferred method for assessing kidney stones, as they are highly sensitive and can provide detailed images of the urinary tract.
