What Diet Increases The Sperm Count In A 40 Year Old?
My husband is 44, height is 5'8, weight around 300. He just went to the dr and found out he has a low sperm count and the sperm is misshapen. We just lost our insurance so we can't go to a specialist right now. What should he do to help his count get better for now until we get insurance again? Also we are wondering why the sperm is misshapen? Thanks, Frances

Hello,
The low sperm count is called oligospermia. The causes include varicocele, low FSH, LH, mumps orchitis, chronic epididymorchitis etc. I suggest you investigate primarily with ultrasonography testis, CBC, serum testosterone, FSH and LH estimation for primary work up.
You can revert with reports once done. Meanwhile, you can take hey Forte or Maxoza L like amino acid and l carnithine containing tablet.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
