Hi,
The cause of the low sperm count should be identified and if treatable, treated first. There are medications given to improve the count and their efficacy varies; ayurvedic remedies are also available and claimed to give good results. In addition, certain precautions like abstaining from smoking and drinking, avoiding hot water baths and wearing tight under garments, restricting intercourse to alternate days also help to improve the quality of sperm production. Hope this helps. Take care.

Hello dear,
Decrease in sperm count can be either due to any pathology or infection in the male reproductive system.
Hence, it is needed that the underlying cause should be detected & treated accordingly.
Sperm production can be enhanced with the help of Nutritional supplements & vitamins like Vit E, Vit C, Vit B complex, Folic acid, Selenium, Zinc, L-Carnitine, etc.
And it is appreciable to know that your husband is taking Vitamin E, multivitamins for the same.
Kindly repeat the sperm analysis to analyze the progress of treatment.
Wishing a good health.
Take care
