In the United States and Spain, the number of men being treated for infertility has risen sevenfold in 15 years. A new study shows that smoking and exposure to plastics can affect male fertility. The number of men with normal sperm counts is declining, and more men are needing fertility drugs, said Dr. Ashley Titz, a research leader at the New Jersey Society of Reproductive Medicine. A total of 20 million self-motile sperm per milliliter of a man's semen is considered normal, and below 18 million means that the man needs fertility treatment. However, treatment depends on how low a person's sperm count is. In men, the main causes of reduced sperm count and infertility are smoking, stress Obesity and exposure to chemicals found in plastics, researchers say. Due to lifestyles in the West, more and more men have low sperm counts. In July 2017, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) announced that fertility in the US had reached an all-time low. The birth rate among American women has also been declining for decades. However, since about 2010, it has decreased significantly.
