Daily Sex Helps Improve Fertility

mmmscience writes "While fertility studies lately seem to have been exclusively focused on in vitro fertilization [IVF], new data coming out of Australia may help with unaided successful conceptions. The study has found that men who have ejaculate daily produce sperm with less damaged DNA. While such actions decrease sperm concentration, it does increase motility, meaning healthier sperm have a better chance of making it all the way to the egg. Good news, as another report has found severe chromosome abnormalities in over 90% of IVF eggs, meaning artificial insemination is just now discovering a whole new field of problems."

    Well, unless your son is like 65 years old, then you and your wife have had a lifetime of exposure to these toxins, and you merely passed it on to him.

    Wise up and read the studies about toxic chemicals.

    Yeah use the taxpayers money when it suits you and then turn your back when another child needs YOUR help. You, my friend, may or may not have a wonderful son. I don't know about that, but you are nonetheless a fucking douche. Two faced asshole.
