Dear guys, your weight matters!

Being too fat may cause hormonal changes in your body leading to;
• low sperm count
• bad sperm quality &
• inability to make a woman pregnant

You can stop firing blank & weak by shedding your excess body fats

A thread 🧵

RT for awareness
Apart from low sperm count and poor sperm quality, obesity is a well-known cause of
• erectile dysfunction, and
• low sex drive.

Being overweight can damage your blood vessels and decrease the level of your male hormone #testosterone.
The damage caused to your blood vessels by obesity can come in different ways, e.g. due to the associated;

• high blood pressure
• diabetes
• excess cholesterol (hypercholesterolemia)
• excess triglycerides (hypertriglyceridemia) and
• inflammation
By just bringing your weight back to normal, you can bring back the spark to your sexual life and make your woman happy.

Guys, pls stop wearing tight #pants!

Tight underwears can keep your testicles closer to the body, causing warmer temperatures that may kill your sperm, lower sperm count & cause infertility.

Wear boxers instead, & go to bed naked if you want to become a father

Dear guys, check if you have #varicoceles

1. Usually in your left scrotum
2. Feels like a "bag of worms"
3. May disappear when you lie down
4. Can cause severe pain
It's a common cause of infertility in men which can be corrected with surgery.

A thread 🧵

RT for awareness
#Varicocele is an enlargement of the veins inside the scrotum. It affects about 15% of adult men.

It may occur due to poorly functioning valves normally found in the veins.

Or due to compression of a vein by a nearby structure such as tumor or cancer of the left kidney.
People with #varicoceles may have:

• A noticeable swollen vein in the scrotum (as shown in this pic)
• A disturbing feeling of weight in the scrotum
• Pain in the scrotum which increases on standing, &
• Shrinking of the testicles

Sometimes, none of these symptoms occur.

Dear Men👨

Your average laptop generates 70°C heat during use. Placing it directly on your laps can transfer the heat to your testis. Prolonged use can damage your male reproductive function irreversibly.

Use your laptop on a table or desk instead!

RT for awareness
The optimum temperature for your sperm is around 20°C which is lower than that of other parts of the body.

Heat of 37°C or more can cause your sperm to lose their motility & viability.

Don't heat up your testicles now & regret it later!
Heating up your sperm laptop heat can destroy them permanently and reduce your chances of being able to impregnate your lady.

Humans belong to blood groups 'A', 'B', 'AB', or 'O'.

Also, we're either

- Rhesus negative (Rh-)

Being Rh+ or Rh- depends on you having certain proteins called #RhesusAntigens on the surface of your red blood cells.

If you have the rhesus antigens, you're Rh+

If you don't have the rhesus antiges, you're Rh-

Male condoms: Failure rate 5%

Condoms are cheap & popular & have the additional advantage of preventing sexually transmitted diseases (STI's) like HIV & hepatitis.

But condoms can burst or slip off during sex & some men may be allergic to the latex or spermicides in condoms. 2/
Female barriers e.g. diaphragm/female condoms: Failure rate 15%
