The time of sperm reaches the highest quality

Semen produced before 7h30 contains the most sperm, facilitating the process of conception.

Time not only affects people's mental and physical but also sperm quality . According to IFL, this is the conclusion given by scientists at the University of Zurich (Switzerland) in Chronobiology International.

Previously, the authors analyzed 12,245 semen samples from 7,068 men who were patients with endocrinology and reproduction at Zurich University Hospital from 1994 to 2015. Results showed that semen was produced early in the morning. 7:30 contains more sperm than sperm produced at other times of the day. If seasonal, the amount of sperm increases when it is spring and summer falls.

In addition to the number, the authors also observed the ability of sperm movement and detection for normal men, time does not affect this aspect. However, in men with abnormal sperm (in terms of movement, number, shape or all three problems), around 8:30 am is the best time for sperm to move.

Experts at the University of Zurich's research review are very useful for conception, both natural and artificial. However, the work has some limitations such as the new ones on a certain area; Excluding health factors, lifestyle and only collecting semen during the day when the hospital is open."We took semen for about 12 hours from the early morning, so there was a lack of evening data, the time when sexual activity took place the most," the authors admitted.

Thus, couples who are waiting for good news do not need to adjust the moment of sex immediately but if they want, they can also try early morning to increase their chances of conceiving successfully.
