Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Egg is a rich source of protein. Protein is required for healthy sperm formation. Hence, it contributes indirectly to sperm formation.

Green leafy vegetables are also rich in protein and they aid in semen formation.

Apart from these, you can take capsule Absolut 3G once daily at bedtime for a month.

Consult a sexologist online for more details.
