'More sex needed' to boost sperm
Quote: |
Some men should have sex every day to maximise the chances of getting their partner pregnant, researchers say. |
The more they get out the better! |

Did scientists run out of actual problems to solve? |

Well, it's very relevant to couples struggling to have a baby. The received wisdom was to avoid ejaculation for a few days before ovulation, so as to increase the quantity of sperm. This research has turned that on it's head. |

Seems rather to confirm the very first google result I got on this subject.

Although it takes the average fertile couple 5-6 months to conceive, the time to conceive can often be reduced to less than 3-4 months for fertile couples who know when they are fertile and who engage in regular and frequent intercourse during their fertile time. |
So, having sex more often leads to greater chance of getting knocked up. Who'da thunk it? |

Well, it's not something I've ever worried about. I seem to get 'knocked up' altogether too easily...  |

I was about to ask if you were alluding to personal experience until I read further on this thread.
So there are more chicks in the nest than the one in your old avatar, eh?

I hear that balancing a guitar on your left leg and wedging it against your crotch can have this effect, eh Mr. Tamborine Man?  |

I heard somewhere that vitamin E encourages the outflow. I am not sure about that, though. A former roommate claimed that some porno stars take Vitamin E. I have no clue. |

Yes. I think my husband simply has to look at me and say "abracadabra!" or something.  |

Wouldn't that be a good thing? There already seems to be too many people around now...in my opinion. |

From the very begining of the article:
Quote: |
It is known for couples with fertility problems to abstain from sex for several days to boost sperm numbers before trying to conceive. |
Not quite the same thing. Also, the scientists have discovered some pretty useful info in this study about damaged sperm:
Quote: |
This research shows that when you put people on a daily ejaculation regime, it reduces the figure for DNA damage. |
The study is about boosting sperm (quality), not just increasing the chances of getting pregnant. |

I heard a similar thing about porn stars, but I thought they were generally injected with a cocktail of chemicals which dramatically increased the "output", as well as prolonging climax. |

I don't have a link, but I recall that ejaculating a lot is the best defence against prostate cancer too. |

That's the best news I've heard all day. Besides the Red Sox going to the world series (I almost came all over myself when I heard they won game 7). |
