Network Antioxidants
Abnormal sperm morphology is often associated to poor DNA integrity of sperm cells. Supplementing your diet with a specific fertility blend of antioxidants, like CoQ10, helps to improve sperm health as well as prevent DNA damage. If a damaged sperm fertilizes an egg, the embryo will most likely be miscarried. Antioxidants are necessary to help the body fight the damaging effects of free-radicals that cause DNA damage leading to gene mutations.

Epididymitis is inflammation of the area behind the testicle in which sperm is stored. This condition can be mild to very painful and the scrotum may become swollen, hot to the touch and red. It usually occurs suddenly, but in rare cases it may be chronic. It is caused by infection.

In her book Herbs and Aromatherapy for the Reproductive System, herbalist Jeanne Rose tells of a man whose swollen testicles were due to an infection. For a week, he took the antibiotics prescribed by his doctor, but there was little change. The doctor then recommended that he sit in a very hot bath for an hour, two or three times a day. The next week, the ailing man sought the advice of an herbalist, who suggested that he turn this into an herbal bath by adding a strong tea of comfrey, echinacea and mullein. He also started taking a mixture of the infection-fighting herbs echinacea and goldenseal, along with ginseng and yellow dock. He saw definite improvement almost right away, and the pain and swelling noticeably diminished in a couple days. Five days after starting the herbs, he was finally able to walk without pain.
If bathing this much is not practical, you can soak once a day and gently rub on an oil a few times daily. The Oil for Genital Infection/Irritation (see chapter 74) is a good one to use, especially if an infection is present.
Testicle Bath
1 quart water
¼ cup each comfrey and mullein leaves
1/8 cup chamomile flowers
Bring water to a boil and pour it over the herbs. Let steep at least 15 minutes. Strain and pour into your bath.
