Doctors’ responses
Hello Suman,
I can understand your concern about Low sperm count with low motility. But dont worry we are here to help you out😊
You are 37 years old, vegetarian, and currently on HCG injections. A sperm count of 16 million/ml with reduced motility is considered below optimal.
The good news is that with proper Ahara (diet), Vihara (lifestyle), and medications , sperm count and motility can improve.
✅ AYURVEDIC PLAN OF TREATMENT
✅ RASYANA HERBS (Sperm Boosters)
1 Narasimaha Rasyana 1 tsp with warm water morning empty stomach – improves count, motility, reduces stress 2 Ashwagandha capsule 1-0-1 – increase vitality and semen volume. 3 Kaunch Beej Churna 1 tsp with warm milk at bed tine – proven in improving motility & testosterone. 4 Chyawanprash (1 tsp daily) – overall Rasayana.
✅ DIET MODIFICATION
✔️Include: Milk (cow’s milk, preferably warm, with a pinch of turmeric or cardamom). Ghee, soaked almonds (5–7), walnuts, dates, pumpkin seeds, sesame seeds. Fresh seasonal fruits (banana, pomegranate, grapes, figs). Moong dal, urad dal, paneer, ghee rice, jaggery.
❌Avoid
Excess tea/coffee, spicy junk food, fried items, smoking, alcohol. Long fasting or crash dieting.
✅LIFESTYLE MODIFICATION
Sleep 7–8 hrs (avoid late nights). Moderate exercise (walking, yoga, surya namaskar). Avoid over-exhaustion. Reduce stress – practice Bhramari pranayama, meditation daily. Avoid heat exposure to genitals (tight clothes, hot water baths, keeping laptop on lap).
✅PANCHAKARMA
Abhyanga (oil massage) with sesame oil once or twice weekly improves circulation. Panchakarma Rasayana therapy (like Virechana + Rasayana medicines) is highly effective in chronic cases.
✅ Answer to Your Specific Case
Yes, HCG injections help but only medically stimulate.
To naturally strengthen Shukra dhatu, you should start Ashwagandha + Kaunch Beej ++ Chyawanprash along with a sperm-friendly diet and lifestyle.
Ayurveda improves not just sperm count, but also quality, motility, and overall vitality.
Usually, noticeable improvements take 3–6 months of consistent care.
wish you a Good health😊
Warm. Regards Dr Snehal Vidhate

HELLO SUMAN,
SPERM COUNT= you mentioned 16 million. WHO consider >20 million as normal, so yours is slightly on the lower side
MOTILITY= this refers to how actively sperm swim. If motility is low, sperm may struggle to reach and fertilise the egg.
AGE 37= natural sperm health may decline slowly with age, but lifestyle and treatment can improve things
CAUSES= often, it’s not just one factor. stress, nutrition, hormonal imbalance, toxins (like smoking/alcohol), heat exposure, varicocele, infections or idiopathic (unknown)
AYURVEDIC VIEW -Ayurveda calls this condition Shukra kshaya (depletion of reproductive tissue) or Beeja dushti (defect in sperm quality)
TREATMENT GOALS -nourish and rebuild shukra dhatu -correct balance of vata-pitta-kapha , as imbalance affects reproductive strength -remove ama (toxins) and stress that interfere with fertility -support both body and mind, since fertility is linked to vitality and mental health
INTERNAL MEDICATIONS
1) ASHWAGANDHA CHURNA= 1 tsp with warm milk twice daily =strengthens nerves, reduces stress hormones, increases testosterone and sperm count
2) KAPIKACCHU POWDER= 3 gm powder with honey twice daily =proven to improve motility and semen volume
3) SHILAJIT (purified)= 250 mg once daily with warm milk in morning =rasayana, boosts energy, stamina, and fertility
4) GOKSHURA CAPSULES= 500mg cap twice daily after meals =improves urinary/reproductive system, testosterone support
5) MUSLI PAK= 1 tsp with milk at night
DURATION= usually 3-6 months, since sperm take ~ 72 days to regenerate fully
EXTERNAL THERAPIES
1) OIL MASSAGE= warm sesame oil to reduce vata and stress
2) Followed by mild steam helps detoxify with out overheating testes
3)SHUKRA TAILA- TAKE 2-3 DROPS AND APPLY OVER THE SHAFT OF PENIS(NO GLANS), GENTLY MASSAGE FOR 5 MIN BEFORE BED

#STRICTLY AVOID -FRIED, SOUR, OVER SPICY FOOD -EXCESS TEA, COFFEE, COLD DRINKS -SMOKING, ALCOHOL,PORN USE,FREQUENT MASTURBATION -LATE NIGHT FOOD OR MOBILE PHONE USE AT NIGHT
NOW COMES THE MOST IMPORTANT PART TO FOLLOW

To enhance sperm count and motility through Ayurveda, attention to diet, lifestyle, and specific herbal supplements is essential. Focusing on ojas, the essence of cells and immunity, is key for improving sperm health. Here are a few steps you can take.
Dietary Adjustments: Since you’re vegetarian, include foods rich in zinc, such as pumpkin seeds and sesame seeds. Zinc is crucial for sperm production and motility. Consume more antioxidants, which combat oxidative stress, a known factor for impaired sperm quality. Fruits like pomegranates and vegetables like spinach will be beneficial. Incorporate spices like black pepper and turmeric in your meals for their antioxidant properties. Add ghee in your diet, it’s renowned in Ayurveda for enhancing tissue quality including reproductive tissues.
Herbal Supplements: Ashwagandha is known for its benefits in increasing sperm count and vitality. Consuming 1 tablespoon of Ashwagandha powder with warm milk at night may help. Consider Shatavari, known for supporting male and female reproductive health. Shilajit is another powerful rasayana; its regular use can help to increase male fertility.
Lifestyle Modifications: Stress can negatively impact sperm health, so regular meditation or yoga can be very helpful. Pranayama, especially Nadi Shodhana, enhances overall vitality and balance. Ensure adequate sleep, at least 7 - 9 hours, to maintain overall health and vitality. Avoid smoking and alcohol, as these can further decrease sperm count and motility.
Physical Activity: Regular moderate exercise, around 30 minutes a day, prevents obesity and may improve sperm health. Too much exercise might have opposite effects, so maintain balance.
Consultation: Continue HCG injections as per your doctor’s advice, but please discuss any Ayurvedic supplements or lifestyle changes you’re considering with a healthcare provider. Their guidance will ensure compatibility with ongoing treatments. Always remember that Ayurveda emphasizes that change takes time, so consistency is key here. Be patient and allow these changes to take effect over several months.

Improving sperm count and motility within the Siddha-Ayurvedic perspective involves addressing imbalances in the doshas, particularly those affecting reproductive health. For a vegetarian like yourself, ensuring your dietary habits align with enhancing reproductive tissue (known as Shukra dhatu) is essential.
First, consider incorporating foods that enhance the kapha dosha, which are naturally strengthening and nourishing. Almonds, walnuts, and seeds like pumpkin and sesame can be particularly beneficial. They are rich in nutrients needed for reproductive health. Make a habit of soaking almonds overnight and consuming them a few at a time in the morning.
Prioritizing foods that boost agni (digestive fire) will also contribute to overall vitality, indirectly supporting sperm health. Include spices like cumin, ajwain, and fennel seeds in your meals as they help in improving digestion and absorption of nutrients.
Herbal preparations like Ashwagandha and Shatavari can aid in increasing sperm health. They help in balancing the vata dosha and boost vitality. Consider taking these herbs in powder form with warm milk, once or twice daily.
Your current use of HCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) injections needs coordinated care. It’s crucial to maintain open communication with your healthcare provider managing this treatment, as hormone therapy might require specific supportive measures.
Incorporating yoga, meditative practices, and Pranayama can also help manage stress, which indirectly influences sperm quality. Regular moderate physical activity supports circulation and overall kapha balance, further boosting reproductive health.
Addressing underlying lifestyle factors is important; ensure adequate sleep, manage stress levels, and reduce exposure to environmental toxins-like plastics, as these can negatively impact sperm quality. Each action taken can form part of a holistic approach towards improving sperm health within your unique prakriti, promoting overall well-being.
