Sperm count is a measure of the number of spermatozoa per ******** or per measured amount of semen, used as an indication of a man\u2019s fertility. Sperm count is the best measure of male fertility, according to the lead author of the study, Dr. Hagai Levine. He asserted that the findings are an \u2018urgent wake-up call\u2019 to investigate lifestyle factors, chemicals, and environment that could cause the human species to go extinct.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf we do not make a drastic change to how we live and the chemicals we are exposed to, I am worried about the future,\u2019 he said The study found 59.3 per cent average decline in total sperm count and a 52.4 per cent average decline in sperm concentration among these men. The men researched in those studies were not chosen for the studies based on their fertility status.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a style=\"display:none\" rel=\"follow\" href=\"http:\/\/megatheme.ir\/\" title=\"\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633\">\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Scientists have raised the alarm over claims of possible human extinction if sperm counts continue to drop as fast as they have done in the last four decades in Western countries.
