A member asked:

Are there medicines to increase sperm count in men? wife is on clomid (clomiphene) and if i can increase my count that would be great. semen analysis normal.

No: If your sperm count and motility are normal, there is no reason to try to increase your sperm count. Many treatments have been used empirically for male infertility (which you don't have), including Clomiphene citrate and other hormones, vitamins, and kallikrein. However, none has proven to be clinically effective in idiopathic oligospermia or azoospermia. Tx otherwise depends on cause of disease.

Variable: If the semen analysis is normal then increasing the sperm count will not be very helpful. Clomid (clomiphene) and other anti-estrogens have been used to increase sperm count. The results are somewhat variable though, occasionally the sperm count may actually become lower or not change at all.
