A member asked:
Can chronic dehydration affect a male's sperm quality? my husband hardly drinks fluids during the day and we r having difficulty ttc.

Unlikely: Drinking fluids to help with hydration, but are unlikely to contribute to infertility. If you and your husband are having difficulty getting pregnant, it would be worth discussing these issues with your family practice physician or with an infertility specialist.
