Excessive smoking, drinking can affect sperm — Expert SundayThoughts September1st
A reproductive endocrinologist and Chief Medical Director, Medical Art Center, Lagos, Prof Oladapo Ashiru, discusses low sperm count withSperm count is a situation in which the sperm is produced in a certain amount; hopefully, it is within the World Health Organisation criteria of the normal count, which is from 20 million to 40 million per millilitre in one ml of ejaculation.

Therefore, to say that a man that comes to a clinic for evaluation has passed the test of fertility, the man would have a count, now according to WHO, anything from 20 million upward.

If the sperm has up to 40 per cent or 50 per cent abnormality, it is going to find it difficult to impregnate a woman.
