Temperature, an important factor for male fertility, is often ignored by many.

Extreme temperatures, whether hot or cold, can significantly affect sperm, which is crucial for a man’s ability to impregnate a woman.

Despite the ruthless heat, summer can be advantageous for fertility treatment with proper management.

Instead of seeing summer as a challenge for fertility, it can be embraced as an opportunity to boost reproductive health.

The season naturally supports fertility with increased vitamin D from sunlight, better circulation through outdoor activities, and access to hydrating, nutrient-rich foods.

Summer is an ideal time for in vitro fertilisation (IVF), offering fewer seasonal illnesses and a more flexible schedule, ensuring better treatment adherence.
