After 8 weeks of losing weight, patients increased sperm concentration by 50 percent and the sperm count by 40 percent. After a year, the men had twice as many sperm cells as before their weight loss.Men all throughout the globe are experiencing declining semen quality, which is commonly referred to as an outright fertility crisis.Researchers from theand Hvidovre Hospital reveal in a new clinical study that men who lose weight improve their sperm quality – if they keep the weight off.
The new results may be excellent news for fertility since a correlation between increased sperm count and faster pregnancy attainment has already been shown., which is highly ranked in the area of fertility research. A total of 56 obese males aged 18-65 years with a BMI between 32 and 43 took part in the study.Signe Torekov explains that it has long been known that obesity is associated with reduced semen quality.
“The men lost an average of 16.5 kg which increased the sperm concentration by 50 percent and the sperm count by 40 percent eight weeks after the weight loss. During the 52 weeks, the trial lasted following the weight loss, the men maintained the improved semen quality. But only the men who maintained the weight loss: after a year, these men had twice as many sperm cells as before their weight loss. The men who regained weight lost the improvements in semen quality,” she explains.
Two of the groups received placebo medication, while the other two groups received obesity medication. Among the two placebo groups, one group had to follow an exercise program where each week, they had to do a minimum of 150 minutes of moderate physical training or 75 minutes of hard training – or a combination.
