Teen Pregnancies and Sperm Count

This article is something of a follow-up to other posts under "Men's Health" on the same or a related theme. It suggests that the likeliest reason for the recent drop in teen pregnancies is not the effects of abstinence or education programs, but instead from the steady and significant decline in human sperm count over the past 100 years, which doesn't seem to be slowing down. Even worse, since the causes are likely to be environmental and irreversible for the near future, we may not be able to stop this phenomenon in time to keep it from becoming a serious threat to our species.
