Manage episode 469648023 series 2875170
This week’s episode we’re chatting about 3 different causes of low sperm count that supplements aren’t going to fix. This is why digging down to the root cause to support your treatment plan is so important. So today we’re highlighting the need for a comprehensive fertility work up and focusing on the root cause rather than the quick fixes (that may not even be helping!).
Topics Covered:
How genetics play a role in the fertility journey
Why you need to rule out varicoceles
The importance of medication and drug review with your practitioner
