First of all have him not wear any underwear, boxers or anything. Just have him wear his shorts or pants with nothing under the pants he is wearing. And also have him take vitamins. Cause having alot of vitamins in your system helps make more sperm and the sperm count be higher. Also it helps if you only have sex every other day instead of every day. Cause if you have too much sex it will cause the sperm count to be lower. Cause it takes 24 to 48 hrs for the sperm count to get higher. Hope this helps ya.

g'day, understand what you're going through......there is nothing that can really "raise" sperm count....you just need to address what is lowering it. Stress, too much alcohol, smoking, soft drinks & caffeine, tight jocks/boxers, cycling, saunas, getting kicked in the balls, exposure to chemicals like asbestos etc can all cause this. The best advice from someone who's been through it all is: get a sperm analysis done at the dr's at least every 6 months so you can determine whether it is getting better while you're trying to fix the problem.
Also, you can check out www.sharkeyshealingcentre.com.au because they provided us with info too.
Good luck.

I once read that men should take a multi-vitamin when you're TTC because the Zinc makes the sperm stronger. It can't hurt and it's healthy for your guy, too. Good luck!
(Oh, and no laptop computers on their laps...since they're warm. This can kill sperm just like tighty-whities and warm baths.)

He should take a multi-vitamin for men. He should also take vitamin C. My husband takes one a day for men and 500mg of vitamin C daily. To the smoke-a-phobics, IT IS NOT PROVEN THAT SMOKING DECREASES SPERM QUALITY!! My husband was checked previously (4 yrs after he stopped smoking) and was diagnosed on the low side of normal. However, he was checked again 2 weeks ago (after smoking again for 5+ years) and he was wayyyyyyyyyyyy above the norm. Normal sperm count is 40,000,000 hubby's was 265,000,000. Motility needs to be a minimum score of 15 hubby's was 18, and morphology needs a minimum score of 150 hubby's was 185!! I get so sick of smoking being blamed for everything. I guarantee if no one in the world smoked we would still have the same problems. And then what would you blame it on? eating? breathing? living?

How about giving sex a break - no masturbating.
