Fertility is a natural process to insure the survival of human species.
Through natural selection, we produce many offspring when the
reproductive system works at it's peak in the suitable environment with
plenty foods around. On the other hand, the reductive system may
completely shut down or work at it;s minimum state and we produce less
offspring, when the environment is hostile including less foods around,
war, epidemic, etc. But regardless any situation. most women are capable
to conceive sometimes before menopause.

we known, we live in the society, where everything we drink are mostly
cold including milk. It has a danger effect in the male body as it
depletes of the yang qi which is needed to counter the the cold effects
of abundant yin, leading to kidney yang deficiency. If one day, our yang
qi production from the kidney jing no longer working well, it will
cause male symptoms of infertility
2. External factors
a)
Working in the cold environment such as fish, poultry and meat
processing plants may deplete the kidney yang as our body require to
produce yang qi constantly to counter the external cold.

According
to traditional medical medicine, sexual intercourse helps to improve
blood circulation and production of certain hormones which are necessary
for our health. It also helps to balance the kidney yin qi but frequent
sexual activity depletes the kidney jing which is vital for hormone and
sperm production, leading to low sperm count or semen with no sperm as
well as kidney diseases.

healthy function of the reproductive organs including the penis.

hormone as we mentioned in previous article. Deficiency of kidney yang

emission is a pattern in which the semen of a man emits frequently
