Now that we have entered modern society, there are still people who are “dropping blood and dripping essence”, thinking that blood donation will affect male reproductive function. Is this really the case?
It is safe to say that blood donation from healthy people will not affect Male fertility.
Healthy people donating a small amount of blood can not only save the lives of others, but also help to mobilize the hematopoietic function in the body, especially for male blood donors more beneficial. Because after a small amount of blood donation within the normal range, the hematopoietic function will be mobilized immediately to replenish the marrow and hematopoietic for the body, so that the metabolism becomes vigorous.
Studies have found that long-term and appropriate blood donation, especially the single donation of red blood cells and platelets and other formed components, can significantly reduce blood viscosity and accelerate blood flow. Cerebral blood flow increases, so as to achieve the effect of relieving or preventing hyperlipidemia, making people feel relaxed, clear-headed and energetic.
Too low iron content in the body can easily lead to iron-deficiency anemia and sluggishness, while too high is counterproductive. “International Cancer” has reported that if the iron content in the body exceeds 10% of the normal value, the probability of suffering from cancer will increase. Donating blood in moderation can prevent cancer. The article also mentioned that women lose a certain amount of iron due to blood loss during the menstrual cycle, so no significant relationship between iron content in women and cancer has been found.
To sum up, the blood within the legal provisions of male blood donation has little effect on the human body, and it has nothing to do with fertility.
