only if he is wear tighty whities... they get too hot and kill the sperm.. its actually true.. you generate heat when you walk and the hot seat of the truck doesnt help... if your testicles are close to the body at this point it will be even hotter... have him wear boxers....
maybe there is a free clinic somewhere close by or a sperm donor clinic... they will do a count on his sperm and they should let you have the info for free

It's not walking. Since you have lost a baby, it's probably not even him it could be your body not being ready yet or not being pregnancy-friendly. If he has gotten you pregnant before, it seems that his sperm count is probably OK. If any of the factors below have changed since then (like - sex frequency?) then it is possible that it's him.
His sperm count will be affected by - circulation (underwear), genetics, past jobs which may have been hazardous, and frequency of sex. Tell him to sleep nude and wear boxers during the day. Make sure he holds off for a few days before an attempt, especially if his sperm count may be marginal.
You should talk with a doctor of course. I think a sperm count test is relatively cheap, even if he has no insurance.

Walking has no affect on a man's sperm count.Tight fitting underwear can decrease his sperm count because his testicles are kept too close to the body increasing the temperature that results in less viable sperm. Boxers are usually recommended.Most docs recommend trying to conceive for a year before investigating any potential problems.Call around. some doctor's offices are not equipped for analyzing sperm counts. Good luck.

No, walking does not affect his sperm count. He should wear boxer shorts because temperature does affect the quantity and quality. Try the local planned parenthood, they do more than give out BCP's. Check out Prevention magazine on-line, they have info about a home sperm analysis test kit.

The only way that would affect it is if he gets too hot. That will kill sperm, but only for a 24 hour period. It takes about 24-48 hours for the count to get back up.

Alot of walking can cause friction which can cause excess heat that can lower sperm count and mobility. I would suggest seeing your gynecologist and she can sent him for a sperm count or in some cases do it right there in the office.. Its usually not that expensive.

No, if his sperm count is low, it's probably due to a biological condition. Contact your regular physician to ask for a referral to a reproductive specialist.

Are you serious? That's a riduculous notion.
Nobody will test your boyfriend for free. Don't FedEx employees get health insurance?
