Dying sperm??

[ttc_Mera]

Hi ladies, I hope this isn't a weird question. So DH and I haven't bd in a couple weeks. My fertile week starts next Monday and from what I've read online, men should 'release' every 4 days or so to replenish, otherwise the sperms will build up and die. From there I am assuming that the dying sperm are the ones we are getting during our fertile week ( may be the culprit for our past miscarriages?)

I know when we conceived DS , we conceived him in the first cycle of ttc and we use to BD like rabbits ( we were younger and had more energy, not so much anymore).

Just wanted to get other opinions on this. If this is true I suppose we have to work to do tonight

i have actually read the same thing as well and ironically before we conceived our MC my husband was in the field for a week so that may have been the case well. It doesn't hurt to try to get the work done early

we used to bd like rabbits before conceiving both times, didn't change the outcome though and both ended up in losses... it is true that the older sperm dies but it is removed and substituted with the new one, just like blood gets renewed in men (old blood cells are removed and substituted with new ones and this occurs all the time), even though they don't have a period like women do.

and who knows, no BD doesn't mean that your OH didn't help himself alone in the meantime

Thanks ladies. I figured us started a little early couldnt hurt . Maybe we will get back to going at it like rabbits?. Do you ladies have an idea if soda effects sperm? DH was basically addicted to soda ( drinking a 2 liter in a day by himself ) . I got him to stop ( already a month with no soda woohoo!) So I am hoping it helps.

i don't know if it affects sperm directly but it is definitely a good thing that he cuts that habit down, as it really ain't the healthiest one at all.

The "better" sex you have, the better sperm will be released and the better environment you have down there. When a man releases, he releases twice and if it was "really good" he will dip down into the really good fresh sperm and the woman will have more fertile mucousa as well

The Sperm that die are absorbed into the body.
