The Impact of Ejaculation Frequency on Sperm Health | Dr Anupama Deenadayal Mettler

In this video, Dr. Anupama Deenadayal Mettler, a gynecologist and embryologist at Mamata Fertility Hospital addresses a common question which is raised by patients: How ejaculation frequency impacts sperm production?

Every day, millions of sperm are produced in the testes and stored in the epididymis for 2 to 11 days, where they mature. When a man ejaculates, a part of these mature sperm is released, with each ejaculation containing anywhere from 20 to 120 million sperm.

A sample from a man who hadn't ejaculated for 20 days was analyzed. While the sperm count was high, very few sperm were moving. This indicates that prolonged storage in the epididymis leads to sperm damage due to reactive oxygen species, reducing motility and affecting DNA. This damage, known as DNA fragmentation, increases with abstinence periods longer than 4 days.

Next, sperms from the same man after only 2 days of abstinence was analyzed. The sperm count remained high, but motility was significantly better. Studies have shown that a healthy ejaculation frequency of two to three times per week helps maintain optimal sperm count and motility.

For couples trying to conceive, maintaining a healthy ejaculation frequency, even through masturbation, is beneficial for reproductive health. Frequent ejaculations do not decrease the chances of conceiving.
