If you’re a man that wants to have a child at some point, it may be in your best interest to find out if your father smoked.
A new study has found that men whose fathers smoked have a 50% lower sperm count than a man with a non-smoking father.
“I was very surprised that regardless of the mother’s level of exposure to nicotine, the sperm count of men whose fathers smoked was so much lower,” said specialist physician Jonatan Axelsson.
There is a direct connection between a man’s sperm count and the chances he has to reproduce. Having this information could be beneficial for men who want to have children in the future.
