Reasons of Increasing Male Infertility

Male infertility is increasingly prevalent in Pakistan, largely due to lifestyle factors that negatively impact reproductive health. Key contributors include smoking, poor dietary habits, obesity, and high stress levels.

Smoking and Diet:

Smoking significantly decreases sperm count and motility, posing serious challenges to successful conception. Furthermore, a diet deficient in essential nutrients exacerbates poor sperm health. 

Obesity:

The rising obesity rates in Pakistan contribute to hormonal imbalances that affect fertility. Excessive body weight can lower testosterone levels while elevating estrogen, negatively influencing sperm production. 

High Stress Levels:

The demanding and stressful lifestyles prevalent in the region also play a critical role in diminishing male fertility. Stress leads to increased cortisol production, which interferes with testosterone production and reduces sperm quality. This also contributes in reduced birth rates in Pakistan.
