    Caffeine and Fertility: Male
    Much confusion has arisen over caffeine use in males. When sperm are treated under laboratory conditions with caffeine there is a short increase in the percent of motile sperm. However, over the longer term, the percent of moving sperm declines more quickly.

    When men drink caffeine, most studies show a decrease in their ability to produce a pregnancy. The same Danish study that found a decrease in fertility from caffeine in women also found a similar decrease when men were the ones consuming caffeine.

    In about 40% of infertile couples, the cause of the infertility lies with the males. There are many reasons for male infertility. For couples who are trying to conceive, it only makes sense to have an evaluation done on the males fertility health when conception hasn't occurred after 6 months.

    My husband underwent a Vasectomy Reversal in December 2000. We conceived 10 months after the reversal. His sperm count, motility, mobility, morphology, etc. were within normal range at 6 months post reversal. We had him on the supplement stated below.

    There are many factors that can decrease or cease sperm production. Here are a few:

    Illness
    Excessive Caffeine
    Stress
    Excessive alcohol consumption
    Street and certain Prescription Drugs
    Some over the counter medications
    Injury to the testicles
    Blockage in the Vas Deferens
    Excessive Heat to the testicles
    Vitamin Deficiencies

    It wont. I clarified it with my GN. Try Orthomol(fertil/fertil plus) increases the count. Its proven. But its not tabs for count increase, its a supplement helps to increase the hormone which produces sperm.
    Ofcourse u have to wait for 90 days.

    i read that it does. i cup of coffee directly before sex stimulates the sperm, and the y chromosomes which are lighter and faster, coffee makes them even faster which results in having a boy. that's if u have sex when u know that u are ovulating the same day not 2 or days earlier, by the time u ovulate 2 days later the y chromosomes die which only leave the x chromosomes which results having a girl.
