Male Reproduction
Chinese Medicine Perspective
There is a strong link between the strength of the Kidney energy and how easily men are able to reproduce.
The movement of the sperm and the viscosity of the seminal fluid can be affected by the energy of the liver and the quality of the body fluids in the body.
Diet and Lifestyle
There is a difference between surviving and thriving. A blood test and semen sample can give men a false sense of relief that their part in the fertility equation is purely sperm donation/deposition. Adequate results are insufficient to rest on your laurels.
A clean diet, supplementation, health and fertility treatment will all go towards improving chances of conceiving.
Reproductive Responsibility
A woman’s cycle is a more overt indication of her fertility and men’s health can sometimes be pushed aside. It is just as important that the health of a male is taken into consideration when exploring fertility and infertility of a couple.

Sex and Masturbation
There are several schools of thought as to how much sex should be had when trying to have a baby and how many times a man can masturbate when trying for a baby.
