Hello,
Folic acid is considered to be a prenatal medication and is harmless. There is no specific medicine to make stronger sperms; medicines are available to increase sperm count but not motility. You may take certain precautions like avoiding hot baths,tight undergarments, trauma to the scrotal region, avoidance of smoking and alcohol. You may consult an infertility specialist for a complete workup and advice. Hope your query is answered. Take care.
