Male infertility due to alcohol
Posted on 6th June  2019

Depending on how much a man drinks and how often they drink, the answer is yes, alcohol use can impact male fertility.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention stated that 58 percent of adult men had at least one drink of alcohol within the past month in 2016. Further, 23 percent of men had an average of eight drinks per sitting, multiple times in one month.
Given the high rate of alcohol use among men, some people may wonder about how alcohol can impact men, and even if alcohol affects men when trying to get pregnant. Studies show that among men with low to moderate alcohol use (up to two drinks per day for a man), alcohol consumption does not have an impact on their fertility or hormones. However, alcohol use that exceeds this count, also known as heavy alcohol use, can impact male fertility.
Heavy Alcohol affect sperm
Heavy alcohol use can affect how fertile a man is. It does this by directly impacting all three areas of the male reproductive system and the hormones they make.
Alcohol affects sperm production and health by interfering with the functioning of the male reproductive system. To understand how alcohol affects sperm, it’s essential to know how the male reproductive system operates to produce sperm
The male reproductive system is made up of three parts of the body: a...The testes    b...The hypothalamus in the brain     c....The anterior pituitary gland, which is connected to the brain.
Together, these areas of the body are called the hypothalamus-pituitary-gonadal axis, or HPG axis. Alcohol use can impact all of the areas of the HPG axis.
My advise
1....... Hormones are crucial to male reproductive health and are produced in both the hypothalamus and the anterior pituitary gland. Together, the hypothalamus and the anterior pituitary gland make many common hormones in the body.
2....    Two of the hormones that are made from the hypothalamus working with the anterior pituitary gland are:   a....  Luteinizing hormone, or LH      b...Follicle stimulating hormone, which is also known as FSH
These hormones travel through the body and impact the testes, and they also play important roles in sperm production.
3....     Harm both the hypothalamus and anterior pituitary gland: Heavy alcohol use can reduce the amount of LH that is made and can even cause any LH that is made to be less potent than normal. Alcohol is also believed to reduce the amount of FSH that is made.
4.....    Directly impact the testes: Heavy alcohol use can cause problems with the making of testosterone. It hurts testosterone production by harming the Leydig cells which produce it.
5.....   Disrupt testosterone levels: Testosterone has many roles, and one of them is to help make sperm. The testes have a major role in the male reproductive system as they produce both testosterone and sperm. The LH signals the testes to make testosterone. Alcohol, though, can cause problems with this process. Both short term and long term heavy alcohol use has been shown to reduce testosterone levels.
6....    Stimulate estrogen production: Studies also show that heavy alcohol use can even turn testosterone precursor chemicals into estrogen. This effect leads to increased estrogen levels in men.
7....   Shrink the testes: Alcohol does this by causing loss of sperm cells and harming the seminiferous tubules where sperm is formed and the Sertoli cells where sperm grows.
8....   Lead to impotence and other health problems
9....   Heavy alcohol use is believed to directly harm the Sertoli cells of the testes where sperm grows: This effect is even true of male fetuses before they are born.  A  study found  that even after becoming adults, sperm and semen were abnormal in men whose mothers drank alcohol while pregnant.
10...   Alcohol can harm sperm motility: Studies have shown that abnormal sperm is more common in men who drink more than three and a half servings of alcohol per day. Low sperm count, shape and movement have also been found in men who struggle with alcohol use, meaning there is a negative effect of alcohol on sperm motility
11....  Sometimes men have a complete lack of sperm found in the semen, and researchers believe that this is also due to alcohol use: In one study of men who struggle with alcohol use, only 12 percent had normal semen. Among men in that study who had very heavy alcohol use, none had normal semen.
12...   So avoid alcohol if you want a healthy child.

Poor sleep in Pregnancy causes pre-term or low birth weight Brought to U.... http://successgain.us     and    http://successgain.info My memories Poor sleep in Pregnancy causes pre-term or low birth weight Posted in 2014 Pregnancy can pose serious challenges to sleeping well. Poor quality and too little sleep are common during pregnancy, when many women experience fragmented sleep and symptoms of insomnia. Even women who don’t generally experience sleep problems find that during pregnancy they have difficulty falling asleep and staying asleep, as well as trouble getting enough sleep. We talk a lot about sleep issues for new mothers. But new research   suggests we should be paying more attention to the sleep health of expectant mothers as well. Researchers at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center found   links between both the quality and quantity of pregnant women’s sleep and complications at birth, including low birth weight and pre-term births. The link betw
