had a hard hit on a the testicles. could that cause a male fertility issue?

Question 4

could moderate spinning exercise decrease male fertility?

Accepted Answer

Male fertility:  There have been studies that suggested that prolonged biking using a hard seat could adversely impact sperm.

Accepted Answer

A suspect drug: Allopurinol helps halt cell division and cell division is critical for sperm production at 1000 sperm being produced per heartbeat. Talk to your doctor and you must balance quality of life off of Allopurinol (i.e. More gouty pain) with fertility issues taking it.

Question 8

please tell bcp's effect on male fertility please pls so many times i asked but exact answer i didn't get please tell me sir?

Accepted Answer

More info?: Do you mean a male who is taking bcp? An 'exact' answer is impossible because 1) extremely rare for men to take bcp, 2) depends on 'why' he is taking them. Prolonged use of bcp can suppress male sperm production for sure, but is that what you are asking?

Accepted Answer

Probably not.: However, if you have suspicions about your fertility, you should be evaluated by your physician.
