We are trying for our first baby: Any recommended ways to help increase sperm count?

There are a few ways to increase your sperm count AND quality. You can have sufficient sperm which are low in quality. 1. Quit smoking and alcohol if you haven't already. 2. Avoid overheating your testicles by wearing loose clothing and not going to the hot bath and sauna. 3. Reduce stress 4. Ejaculate less frequently Ideally, have sex every two or three days. 5. Be careful of toxins. 6. Keep a healthy lifestyle to build up testosterone which helps with sperm production. 7. Keep a healthy BMI Lose weight if you are overweight and gain more if you are underweight. Good luck! Your wife should ideally start on folic acid at least 3 months before conception. They can be easily purchased at Guardian, Watsons or Unity Pharmacy without the need for a prescription.
