Does Massaging The Testicles Has Any Adverse Effect Of Sperm Count?

So me and my wife have been trying to conceive and have not been successful yet. I do however massage my testicles often. Typically at night and I'm not sure why. I guess its a comfort thing. Does that cause negative effects to testicular function and sperm count?

Hi. Quite an unusual thing to know.
Light massage will not have any negative effect on sperm count or testicular function. Go for a semen analysis test and gynecologist's opinion for your wife. IF possible stop massage or at least do not be harsh
