      As we all know, male The testes of the human body are located in the scrotum, and the temperature of the scrotum is about 3 degrees lower than the body temperature at normal temperature. Physiologically speaking, scrotal temperature lower than body temperature is conducive to the testicles "producing" high-quality sperm , and can ensure that there are enough healthy Live sperm fertilizes the egg.

      Urology workers at New York University in the United States discovered a large number of Infertility In patients with idiopathic infertility or varicocele, the scrotal temperature of men is higher than that of normal people. Especially in men with idiopathic infertility or varicocele, the testicular temperature is higher than that of fertile men.

      They used infrared thermometers to measure the scrotum of 35 normal men with childbearing potential. skin Measurements were taken and the temperature was found to be 33.1-33.5 degrees, while in 50 men with varicocele it was 34.2-34.6 degrees. The results of testing the sperm count and sperm climbing ability of these infertile men with high scrotal temperature were also surprising. Their sperm count and sperm climbing test were significantly lower than those of normal men.

      The above has explained the relationship between testicular temperature and sperm capacity. Then some people may ask, what is the relationship between taking a mandarin duck bath or sauna bath and infertility?

      1. Taking a mandarin duck bath is longer than taking a bath alone. This will cause the scrotum wrapped around the testicles to be in high-temperature hot water. The scrotum will be affected by the high temperature, disrupting the scrotal temperature regulation balancer. The testicles will be filled with a large amount of blood, thus causing fatal damage to the sperm.

      2. Sex life is advanced sex controlled by the cerebral cortex center and requires a lot of energy. In order to ensure excitement, the male and female reproductive organs will be filled with much more blood than usual. For example, when the male sexual organ is erect, the blood demand in the cavernous body is 20 to 25 times more than normal.

      Men who play in the water in a mandarin duck bath are extremely prone to sexual impulses. In addition, due to the high temperature, a large amount of blood accumulates in the skin and internal organs. At this time, conflicts in coordination will inevitably occur, and if sexual intercourse is continued, it will cause incompetence.

      Over time, it may lead to sexual impotence, and in severe cases, "impotence" may occur.

      3. Frequent bathing can easily lead to sudden cardiac death. A few days ago, a sexology research institute in the United States issued a sexology report stating that whether sexual life can be carried out normally has a lot to do with the blood supply to various parts of the human body. An adult has 5,000 to 5,500 ml of blood in the body, and the blood is evenly distributed in various internal organs and tissues.

      If an organ is working harder, the body will temporarily increase blood supply to it.

      Sexual intercourse in a mandarin duck bath will inevitably lead to insufficient blood supply to the heart or serious systemic blood distribution imbalance, which will greatly increase the chance of sudden cardiac death.

      Therefore, some experts have recently suggested that you should not have sexual intercourse within 20 minutes after a hot bath.
