Sperm quality

Sperm quality refers to how healthy and effective sperm are in fertilizing an egg. It mainly involves three factors: count (the number of sperm present), motility (how well sperm can move), and morphology (the shape and structure). High-quality sperm are abundant, swim strongly and straight, and have normal shapes, increasing the chances of successful conception. Poor sperm quality can result from various health, lifestyle, or environmental factors and may reduce fertility. Regular health check-ups, a healthy diet, and avoiding harmful habits can help maintain or improve sperm quality.
