Coffee makes sperm speed up 14 October By Shaoni Bhattacharya Coffee makes sperm go faster, reveals a new study by Brazilian scientists. They suggest caffeine could form the basis of infertility treatment for some men. Fabio Pasqualotto and colleagues at the University of Sao Paulo tested sperm quality in men who ranged from those who never drink the brew to coffee aficionados. Sperm motion, sperm concentration and the levels of hormones were all the same for mild, moderate and heavy coffee drinkers. But a second study presented at the same meeting on another widely used drug — marijuana — revealed a detrimental effect. Heavy drinkers The Brazilian researchers assessed coffee-drinking and semen quality in men undergoing vasectomies from January to September Those who sipped between one and three cups of coffee a day were classed as mild drinkers, those who had between four and six cups as moderate, and those who had over six cups a day were classed as heavy drinkers. No differences were seen in sperm concentration or the levels of hormones such as testosterone or follicle-stimulating hormone between any of the groups.
Sperm is a reproductive cell found all the rage semen, a fluid that males be the source of and release during sexual relations. Sperm cells play a vital role all the rage pregnancy. Some men experience infertility as of a low sperm count. Does Mountain Dew lower your sperm count? Motility, however, slows down when a male consumes too much caffeine, as a rule after four cups of coffee a day.
