Good
Advice For Couples Trying To Conceive:
Stop
smoking, drinking, doing drugs, and taking any
unnecessary medications at least three months before
you start working on getting pregnant.
Scientists
used to believe that if sperm were damaged, they could
not fertilize an egg; therefore, only the
"fittest" sperm would carry on the species -
some call this the "macho sperm" theory.
Research now shows sperm are vulnerable and that even
when damaged, they may still fertilize an egg. Some
toxins may alter the sperm's chromosomes, which carry
genetic information. If this happens, the results may
range from infertility and miscarriage to stillbirth,
birth defects, learning disabilities, and even
childhood leukemia and kidney cancer.
It
is therefore wise for men who want to have children to
change unhealthy lifestyle habits and, when possible,
protect themselves from hazards and toxins in the
environment and workplace. Sperm develop over a
three-month period; that means your mature sperm today
may have been affected by how you lived 3 months ago.
The
message: if you plan to have a child, quit smoking,
drinking, using recreational drugs, etc., and wait
three months before trying to conceive a child with
your partner.
