How to Increase Semen Amounts

Many men want to increase their semen amounts because culturally they've learned that having higher semen amounts equates with being more virile. To some degree this makes sense in that the more semen a man ejaculates, the longer and thus more pleasurable the orgasm. Another reason a man might want to increase his amounts of semen is fertility. The higher the volume of semen, the more sperm are released, and the greater the chance of a man's partner becoming pregnant. However, it is important to know that increased volume does not ensure healthy sperm. If fertility is your goal, then you will need to focus on the health of your sperm, as well as, the amount of semen.

Part 1:

Drink eight glasses of water a day. The more water you drink, the more semen amounts you will have since semen is partially composed of water.

Part 2:

Abstain from masturbation and pace your bouts of sexual activity. The more often you orgasm the less amount of semen you are going to have for each successive orgasm, especially if you orgasm often.

Part 3:

Eat a healthy diet. Diet plays a huge role in the amount of semen a man produces, and a poor diet is sure to produce smaller amounts of semen. So avoid things like processed and refined foods, junk food, and caffeine and you will also have the added benefit of feeling better. Some examples of foods to add to your diet are celery, yams, low fat meats and dairy, nuts, and legumes.

Part 4:

Avoid alcohol, recreational drugs and smoking. All of these adversely affect the amounts of semen a man produces.

Part 5:

Take an herbal supplement specially for increasing semen volume. One example is MacaActive. This is a Peruvian plant with a root like a radish, and was used by the Incans for hundreds of years to keep their men and women sexually healthy. According to Harold Clark, M.D., Jorge Malaspina M.D., and Garry F. Gordon, M.D. MacaActive is prescribed for women to counter menopausal symptoms and for men to increase semen volume, and keep their sperm healthy. Each of these doctors has used this herbal supplement with their patients successfully. In addition, according to scientist Gustavo Gonzales in a study he conducted of twelve men who he gave Maca Active to over a three month period, these men had a 180-200 % increase in semen volume.

Part 6:

Wear loose underwear and pants. When you wear tight underwear or pants this pulls the scrotum up tight to the body and your own body heat can then affect not only the volume of semen, but the quality of your sperm.

Tips:

Add a multivitamin that contains zinc to your diet. Zinc is important to having healthy sperm according to the Mayo clinic.

Warnings:

Smoking is one of the main reasons that men have low semen volumes.
