Whether you’re trying to conceive now or are planning sometime in the future, it’s a good idea to boost the sperm quality in order to increase chances of pregnancy. Remember that your reproductive health is also firmly linked to your general health!
If you don’t know much about fertility and how to get pregnant with your partner – don’t worry! Many of us lack the knowledge that can help us on our fertility journey. The following is our personalized fertility guideline for you.
A sperm test is crucial for evaluating male fertility potential. Knowing sperm volume, count, and motility is important if you’re trying to conceive with your partner. An abnormal sperm quality may also indicate an underlying health condition. Even though it only takes one sperm cell and one egg to get pregnant, more healthy sperm cells will increase your chances of pregnancy each month. Even if you aren’t trying to conceive, your sperm quality can be an important measure of overall health.
The following are the healthy or normal semen analysis results, as determined by the World Health Organization (WHO). Since results can vary from person to person, they are given as a range.
You may want to consider an assessment by your GP to make sure there are no serious underlying causes of this. If your semen quality was in the moderate to optimal range, this is great. You may still want to look at how your lifestyle and supplementation can assist you on your fertility journey.

Supplementation with vitamins and minerals can boost sperm production and help you increase your sperm quality. Clinical studies show very positive effects of antioxidants on sperm concentration and motility leading to increased pregnancy success.
We recommend a multivitamin together with a good quality fish oil and an antioxidant like Coenzyme Q10. This will ensure that you get the important nutrients.
