TV channel ARTE aired a documentary on male sperm on 03 February 2023.
Over the past 40 years, male sperm has been reduced by more than 50%.
This trend is observed almost everywhere in the world and especially in Europe, the United States, Australia and New Zealand, not coincidentally the very continents where peoples are subjected to a raft of measures and new technologies. At this rate, men risk being unable to reproduce within 50 years.
Normally, a man should have no problems with his sperm production. During his lifetime, he produces more than 500 billion of them.
Before 2017, no one ever worried about this.until Dr Shanna Swan, a specialist in meta-analysis, brought the problem to attention and pointed out that sperm production has been declining by 1% per year for many years. If this trend continues, men will run out of sperm or not produce enough sperm sooner than they think.
A Swiss study found that in 58% of men, sperm quality, mobility and morphology are below the minimum level than the standard set by the WHO.
Men who follow a healthy diet can improve sperm quality and quantity. Drug use, alcohol and smoking could have the opposite effect according to some which is then contradicted by other experts. In France today, only 29% of men smoke compared to 60% in the 1960s-70s. Less meat is eaten today than in the past and current eating habits are better than the reference period used as a benchmark.
So what poisons the sperm ? Is it the pollutants in the air or on our food such as parabens, pesticides, phthalates and bisphenols and other endocrine disruptors that affect the production of male testosterone ?
The animal world also seems to be affected. More and more animal species around the world are reportedly showing hermaphrodite signs ( i.e. organs of both sexes ). A study in Denmark reportedly found that the sex organs of male neo-natals are not fully developed or their scrotum has abnormalities or a testicle does not collapse which can cause cancer. This in turn would be due to lack of the right hormones at the right time.
In pregnant women, urine has also been examined for the presence of phthalates. It was found that women who had high levels of phthalates in their urine gave birth to a son with a smaller penis and their perineum was shorter. There is reportedly a direct link between a short perineum and less sperm production at later stages.
Consequently, all pregnant women are advised to minimise their exposure to chemical substances, dust and even air in enclosed spaces during pregnancy.
It is reported that stress and the production of too many stress hormones such as adrenaline and cortisol also have a serious impact on sperm. It is not yet known exactly which hormone affects sperm quality.
Yet another hypothesis put forward is the fact that today's men ejaculate more often than in the past, watch too much and too often porn, excite themselves and masturbate and this would affect both the quality and number of sperm cells. Possibly, the men who participated in various studies would have masturbated too often before. That is a variable included in the observations.
However, the problem occurs worldwide. The decline in fertility runs parallel to the reduction in sperm. In Asia, the population is already well below the normal average. In Germany, 10% of couples are involuntarily childless and in France, 10% of couples who have been trying to conceive for at least 2 years are still waiting. This is said to be partly due to the fact that women are waiting longer and longer before having their first child. The average age has risen to 30 years whereas it used to be 18-19 years on average and men are producing less and less sperm.
What has not been addressed in the documentary is the use of medication and vaccination. The conclusion in this docu is clear : the decline in fertility and reduction in sperm is actually our fault. Wrong lifestyle, too much stress, too much porn, too much dust, too many chemical substances, masturbating too often and bla and bla.
