Hello, 1) Semen analysis is the test to calculate your semen count. 2) Ways to increase Sperm count: a) Don't wear tight pants and jeans. Wear loose, cotton boxer shorts instead of briefs. Avoid hot baths and saunas. B) Manage stress c) Stop Smoking. Smoking cigarettes causes sperm counts to be lower, makes them move more slowly, d) Drink alcohol moderately. Alcohol affects your liver function, which, in turn, causes a dramatic change in your Testosterone levels. E) Ejaculate less frequently-avoid masturbation or too frequent sex.

Dear Lybrate user. I can understand. Don't get confused. SPERM COLOUR, QUANTITY AND THICKNESS changes according to physical condition and sexual intercourse / masturbation timing and related mental and physical conditions. Therefore, don't think too much about the thickness or quantity of sperm. If you want to know the quality of sperm, get your sperm checked for that. For Healthy Sperm, Eat More Vitamins.(Deficiencies in vitamin A have been linked to sluggish sperm and lowered fertility) Minerals.(Inadequate levels of zinc can cause lowered sperm counts), Fatty acids, Folic acid, Lycopen, and Drink a lot of Water. Include sprouts in your daily diet to improve sperm count and quality. Take care.
