1, the effect of mountain bike on sexual function
According to a research report provided by Austrian scientists, because this sport is often accompanied by frequent bumps and vibrations, the sperm quantity and quality of mountain cyclists are much worse than those of normal people.
The researchers selected 40 mountain bikers who rode at least 4,800 kilometers a year, or rode for more than two hours a day on average, six days a week. The researchers found that normal people have 47 million sperm per milliliter of semen, while mountain cyclists have only 20 million sperm per milliliter.
Mountain bikers' sperm movement speed is also much slower. In the hands of 40 mountain bikers, 90% of them lack vitality in sperm and have a lump in scrotum.
However, mountain bikers don't have to give up this sport. The solution is to improve mountain bikes. A pair of high-quality shock absorbers is naturally essential, while the bicycle seat plate needs special improvement design.
The above is an introduction about the influence of mountain bike on male fertility. In fact, not only mountain bikes, but also many sports or professional problems in life may affect a man's reproductive health and sperm quality, so I hope everyone can pay more attention to the health care of both sexes in their lives.
2. Preventive measures to protect the function
1. Reduce risky sexual behavior
Risk-taking behavior or incorrect posture will put pressure on sexual organs, thus causing erectile dysfunction.
give up smoking
Smoking can damage blood vessels and prevent blood from flowing to sexual organs. Nicotine can also infect blood vessels.
pay attention to the diet
A diet that is not good for the heart is not good for sexual ability. A small amount of fruits and vegetables and high-fat foods can not only prevent blood from flowing to coronary arteries, but also prevent blood from flowing to sexual organs. Studies have found that elderly men who eat Mediterranean food for a long time rarely have erectile dysfunction.
control pressure
Psychological stress will increase the level of adrenal gland and cause vascular infection. Anything that can relieve stress or make you feel good is good for sex.
5. Maintain a healthy weight
Being overweight can lead to many health problems, including diabetes, which can lead to nerve damage. If it affects the nerves of sexual organs, it may lead to erectile dysfunction.
6. Pay close attention to testosterone
Even when a healthy man approaches 50, his testosterone level will drop. Symptoms such as decreased desire, emotional excitement, decreased energy, and difficulty in decision-making are all signs of decreased testosterone levels, so be alert to these symptoms.
7. Prevention of hypertension and high cholesterol
Hypertension and high cholesterol damage blood vessels, including those flowing to sexual organs, which can lead to erectile dysfunction. See a doctor regularly to ensure your blood pressure and cholesterol.
8. Moderate drinking or no drinking
There is no evidence that moderate drinking is not conducive to erection, but long-term drinking will damage the liver, nerves and other problems that may cause erectile dysfunction.
9. Exercise regularly
There is a lot of evidence that running, swimming and other forms of aerobic exercise can help prevent erectile dysfunction. Also be careful of other sports that are stressful to sexual organs, especially cycling. People who ride bicycles for a long time should choose bicycles that suit them, wear padded pants and ride standing.
10. Avoid synthetic steroids
These drugs are often abused by athletes or bodybuilders, which will reduce testosterone levels and the body's ability to recognize testosterone.
