More sex in order to have children

Posted by admin in Saturday, July 19th 2008

The recipe for men who want to improve their chances of conceiving is simple: we have to have sex every day.

That is the conclusion of a study conducted by scientists at the University of Sydney.

It is often advises men with fertility problems to refrain from ejaculate for a few days to improve the concentration of sperm when they are trying to conceive.

But the new research argues that this abstention can be counter-productive and damaging the quality of its sperm.

Get involved: To have sex?

Other experts, however, argue that when seeking fertility is difficult to generalize.

“Every man has his pattern espermático” he told BBC Science Dr. Liliana Blanco, President of the Sociedad Argentina de Reproductive Medicine.

“In some men not to the best abstinence is beneficial but not in others, and it appears that there is a decline in semen quality.”

“So I do not think we can generalize the findings have been presented in this study,” adds the expert.

Damage

The study, presented at the annual meeting of the American Society for Reproductive Medicine, studied 42 men whose sperm, examined under a microscope, showed significant damage in its DNA.

They were asked to ejaculate every day for seven days, and compared these with other samples taken after three days of sexual abstinence.

With the exception of five men, all those who had sex daily showed less damage in their semen samples compared with samples of abstinence.

The ejaculation daily, said the study, succeeded in reducing DNA damage sperm of men who ejaculate daily at 12%.

Although the results are preliminary, suggest that men who have trouble conceiving could benefit by having sex daily, scientists say.

It is often advises couples with fertility problems to abstain from sex for two or three days to increase the number of sperm that ejaculation and improve the chances of conception.

An abstention longest, more than five days, perhaps it is not beneficial because although the amount of semen may increase, their quality diminishes.

Fantasías

When sperm are produced, stored in the epididimis at the top of the testicle, but more time was no longer there, accumulate more damage by exposure to free radicals.

“What one has to bear in mind, especially in women, is that having sex within the date of ovulatory women is very important”

The regular ejaculation of sperm empty the reserve, bringing the new sperm produced would be of better quality genetics.

Investigators allege that when a couple is trying to conceive may be advisable to wait about two or three days between each ejaculation to increase sperm count.

But if the man shows DNA damage their sperm count and has a “decent” sperm, then it is advisable to have sex every day to improve the quality of sperm.

However, as stated by Dr. Liliana Blanco, “what one has to bear in mind, especially in women, is that having sex within the date of ovulatory women is very important.”

“It is necessary to diagnose the time periovulatorio to schedule intercourse and increase the possibility of achieving pregnancy.”

He adds that “there is a lot of fantasy in people who are looking for and do not achieve pregnancy, and thinks it helps avoid many days to take greater volume or greater quantity of sperm.”

“Perhaps the expert-says relationships have more frequent when the woman is ovulating increase the possibility of pregnancy.”

“But this would be the fact synchronize the time of sexual intercourse with ovulation.”
