How to quit a nicotine patch addiction? also how long will it affect sperm?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Tapering: You should taper the nicotine patches over 3 months or so, first the 21mg, then the 14, then the 7, and in time, with a tapering dose, you should be less and less addicted. I n general, the nicotine should not adversely effect your sperm to much, especially in the past month of the taper. Best wishes.
