Boxers vs Briefs: which is better when it comes to semen health and quality?


    There has been a widespread belief for years that wearing tight underpants can harm sperm quantity and quality, but is there any real science to back this up? It seems that there is medical support since the urologist and pelvic surgeon Rena Malik has addressed the eternal debate of "Boxers or Slips" in a new video on her YouTube channel.

    Doc explains that there is a widespread belief that keeping the scrotum at a higher temperature can have a negative effect on sperm quality, making looser-fitting briefs an instantly preferable option.

    "When you think about it, boxers give you a little more room to breathe, while briefs are a little warmer and more comfortable," he says. "So there's always been the thought that maybe you should avoid slips if you're trying to have a child."

    Better to wear briefs or boxers?

    In analyzing the data that exists around this claim, however, Malik traces this conclusion to a 1990s study of just 97 men that actually found no real difference between the amount (full this, do you know how much semen is normal?) or sperm quality in the men wearing boxers and men wearing briefs, as well as only a minimal difference in scrotal temperature. A more recent study, he adds, found zero impact of undergarment choice on the ability to have children.

    Boxers vs Briefs: which is better when it comes to semen health and quality?

    When it comes to semen health and quality, it really doesn't matter if you prefer to wear one type of underwear or another. However, Malik notes that wearing underpants "can" in some cases lead to other health or hygiene problems, such as jock itch (a fungal infection that causes a red, itchy rash on warm, moist areas of the body). body).

    For guys who don't wear underwear and like to feel free, Malik also has some very simple but important medical advice: be very careful when buttoning your fly.
