UNTIL YOU’RE READY<\/strong>\u00a0to have a child, you might not think much about the\u00a0health of your sperm<\/u><\/a>. That was true for\u00a0Colton Underwood<\/a>, former star of “The Bachelor.” He recently opened up about his infertility and the \u201csperm rehab\u201d he committed to, as he and his husband set out on the path to fatherhood.<\/p>\n

Underwood told\u00a0Men\u2019s Health<\/em>\u00a0that he hoped to raise awareness about men\u2019s struggles with sperm counts and fertility\u2014something that affects about\u00a015 percent of men<\/u><\/a>. A 2020\u00a0study review<\/u><\/a>\u00a0found that\u00a0sperm counts<\/u><\/a>\u00a0have dropped more than 50 percent globally in the past five decades.<\/p>\n

There are ways to tell how healthy your sperm is\u2014but looking at it isn’t one of them. \u201cA semen analysis is one of the best ways to determine if you have healthy sperm,\u201d says reproductive endocrinologist\u00a0Asima Ahmad<\/u><\/a>, M.D., chief medical officer and co-founder of Carrot Fertility.<\/p>\n
