French Sperm Count 'Falls By One Third' In Past 20 Years -
A major sperm study has delivered a blow to the bedroom reputation of French men.
Gallic sperm count and quality have fallen sharply since the start of the 1990s, say scientists.
The research involving more than 26,600 men showed a "significant and continuous" 32.2% decrease in sperm concentration over 17 years. Numbers of sperm per millilitre of semen fell at about 2% a year between 1989 and 2005.
Researchers calculated that in French men with an average age of 35, sperm count reduced from around 73.6 million per millilitre of semen to 49.9 million.
At the same time, the proportion of normally formed sperm declined by about a third.
