TESTICLES maintain a constant temperature for the semen they store, maintaining a constant temp for the sperm. The testes are like an automatic thermostat. When the temp is too high (lowering sperm count), the testicles drop down to cool off. When the temp is too low (lowering sperm count) the testicles go up into the body to get warm. THEREFORE, when you wear briefs, the testicles stay up, in a warmer position. Briefs don't allow the "automatic thermostat" to work efficiently. THIS is why if you are trying to have children, and have a slight low sperm count, the doctor will tell you to wear boxers to allow the testes to do there job by raising and lowering, depending on temp, to give you the highest sperm count possible. So in answer to your question: YES.

If you're thinking this may be a form of contraception - you're very wrong.

not at all, dr.pepper does though.

Answer: It is recommended that men who have a low sperm count switch to boxers. Apparently briefs keep everything a little closer and thus a little warmer...cooler temperatures are better for sperm production.

Can boxer briefs lower sperm count?

The tight boxers aren't to blame. Sperm are killed in the presence of high temperatures; that's why the testicles dangle down - to keep sperm cool. Tight clothing and hot baths can both reduce sperm motility. This is not to say that a jacuzzi is an reliable method of birth control; it isn't.
