Temperature...Is it really a cause for low sperm count?
Hi,
My DH has low sperm count. I went throught couple of web articles, which said that body temperature if it is very high, causes low sperm count. Is it true? Have anyone of you heard of it? Please clarify. |

Its true....not saunas or hot tubs....long hot baths...avoid these. That info was from my RE. Also, it is possible that if a high fever/virus happens, this can affect sperm count temporarily. Apparently though it takes 3 months to make a sperm (again from my RE) so if your DH has a high fever in March, his June count could be affected...so there are alot of things to think about.
