Steroids and high-intensity exercise affect fertility in what ways?

Steroids contain testosterone, which boosts muscle growth and fitness. The brain is tricked into thinking that sufficient quantities of testosterone are being produced by the testicles when an external source of testosterone is released in the body. Therefore, the testicles are instructed to reduce or stop secretion. As a result, sperm counts are low and testicles shrink, resulting in infertility.

Men's fertility can be improved by exercising regularly. However, you should remember to not push yourself too hard as the high-intensity workout can lead to amenorrhoea, which causes infertility. After your workout, sitting in a hot pool or sauna for too long can also create excessive heat around your testicles, which can lead to infertility.

The Causes of Infertility in Men

Low sperm quality is the biggest cause of infertility in men. There are several factors that negatively affect the quality of sperm, including:
‍

• Excessive consumption of alcohol

• Smoking/drugs

• Consumption of caffeine/tea

• Exposure to xenoestrogens like pesticides and industrial pollutants

• Using synthetic deodorants and cosmetics

• Imbalanced body weight (obese or underweight)

• Wearing tightly fitted underwear that suppresses sperm production

Exercises And Tips That Improve Men’s Fertility

‍The study found that regular exercise improves the quality of sperm in terms of count, volume, shape, size, and motility. But before you consider male infertility related treatment or even low sperm count treatments, here are a bunch of exercises that can help men in improving their fertility:

• Cardio - Maintaining a healthy lifestyle requires 45 minutes of cardio five times a week. By doing this, you can reduce your weight and lose excess fat around your testes.

• Yoga - Relaxing your muscles and reducing stress are two benefits of yoga. You can improve the blood flow to your pelvic organs by practising yoga positions that loosen your hips, back, and groin. That's it! Free and natural Viagra!

• Wear loose fitting pants - This will allow your testicles to stay cool and function optimally

• Relaxation Exercise - Practicing deep abdominal breathing for at least 15 minutes a day will help you relax. It will help unwind tense muscles and boost your fertility
