Hungover dh...and sperm quality?

Just wondered if having a heavy night drink wise has an impact on the quality of sperm? I read something that said if you DTD too often, the quality of sperm can reduce and it occurred to me that having a hangover might have the same effect? I think I'll ovulate on Tuesday so might just wait until 2m to DTD in the hope that his swimmers aren't going to be as sluggish as he's being today!! Wink

I don't think they do because sperm takes 3 months to produce so his sperm is 3 months old by the time of ejaculation.

Yup 3 months from production to (ahem) delivery! So as long as he's not too hungover to perform, the swimmers will be fine.

Excellent - thanks for your help! He seemed to have very little trouble this afternoon so lets hope these ones are lucky!!! Wink
