1. All the eggs a woman will ever produce are
stored in her ovaries before she is born.

2. Sperm factory never closes! Unlike a woman, a
man produces sperm everyday of his life. The
world's oldest dad, Ramajit Raghav, fathered his
second child in two years at the age of 96!

the earlier part of the day

4. Sperm cells have no sense of direction. After they
are ejaculated, only 1 out of 5 sperm head for the
right direction. The rest swim every which way even
though the egg produces chemical signposts to
guide them to the right path.

5. A man with only one testicle is able to make
enough sperm cells to create a baby.

6. Dead Sperm Can Make Live Babies. To fertilize an
egg the old-fashioned way, sperm need to be able
to swim. Not so with in-vitro (test tube) fertilization.
In fact, when IVF technicians use tiny, robotically
controlled glass straws to insert a single sperm
inside an egg, they sometimes beat the sperm with
the glass until it stops moving. The only thing that
matters is the DNA inside the sperm.

7. A man typically ejaculates about half teaspoonful.
It is not much, but it often gets the job done.

8. It takes about 2 months (70-80 days) to make a
sperm. So be careful about people who claim they
have drugs that boost sperm count in 5days.

9. The shelf life of sperm cell is about 72 hours.
10. The sex of a baby is determined by whether the
sperm that fertilizes the egg carries the X or Y
version of chromosome 23.

11. Sperm cells wear hard HAT! Well, while this may
not be like that of a man from the south-south of
Nigeria, they have an oval-shaped structure called
the acrosome. It contains strong chemicals that are
released once the sperm attaches to the egg, which
helps to melt the eggs outer layer to enhance
fertilization.

of her eggs and her fertility would have dropped by
about 50%. Don't fear!
