Some bad habits in sexual life may lead to infertility, so couples who want to have children should pay more attention. Let’s take a look at some bad sexual habits.

Sexual habits that lead to infertility

1. Sexual habits

Among infertile couples, many have intercourse during menstruation. They mistakenly believe that intercourse during menstruation can increase the pregnancy rate. Having sex during menstruation will stimulate our body to produce anti-sperm antibodies, which will directly cause infertility. It can also lead to upward bacterial infection, inflammation of the fallopian tubes, or obstruction of the fallopian tubes, leading to infertility. In order to prevent urinary tract infections, some couples develop the habit of getting up immediately after sexual intercourse to urinate. From a hygienic point of view, this is certainly possible. However, this is not recommended for infertile couples, because it will directly cause a large amount of semen to be discharged from the body, especially during ovulation. It is recommended to change this habit.

2. Sex time

Eggs are generally released only once per menstrual cycle. The lifespan of eggs is 18-30 hours, so they should meet sperm within 24 hours to fertilize. Sperm may survive in the cervical canal for 1-2 weeks, but its ability to fertilize is generally considered to be no more than 48 hours. From this, it is estimated that sexual intercourse is performed once two days before the scheduled ovulation day, on the scheduled ovulation day, and one day after the scheduled ovulation day. , the chance of conception is relatively high.

3. Frequency of sexual life

Normal men ejaculate 1 to 6 ml during sexual intercourse, containing more than 30 million sperm. 70% of the sperm have normal mobility, but only about 3% of them can reach the female uterus. We all know that , a fertilized egg is formed by the combination of sperm and egg. Only one sperm can combine with the egg, indicating that the competition between sperm is very fierce. If couples have sexual intercourse too frequently, there will be a situation where the supply of sperm exceeds demand and the quality will also decrease. It will greatly affect the fertilization rate.
