The latest research suggests that regular sex increases the quality of a man's sperm.
According to researchers at Sydney University in Australia, men with damaged sperm or low sperm counts should ejaculate every day in order to increase the count and quality of sperm.
The use of drugs to treat male fertility problems is still new and experimental and as there is a risk of side-effects and not much proof that they work, you might be more interested in a natural approach.
Next time your partner says she's too tired or not in the mood, tell her that once a day keeps the fertility specialist at bay.
The study included 42 men with abnormally shaped sperm. The men were told to abstain from sex for three days, and samples were collected. They were then told to ejaculate once a day. All of the men except for five showed improved sperm quality and less damaged sperm in the second sample, taken after a week of daily ejaculating.
The sample taken after three days abstainance was poorer in quality, so the method of abstainance to 'save up' sperm may actually be damaging men's fertility.
