Sperm study results reveal sperm motility up 52.2%

Improve Sperm Motility by Up to 52.2% With This Easy Routine

4 min read

We’ve always been confident that our carefully researched formulas can support your fertility, but we didn’t want you to have to just take our word for it. We’re proud to announce that the results from our first research study are in—and they’re great.

Our team of researchers set out to measure how The Powers for Males + CoQ10 Boost can benefit people with male-factor infertility. Patients took our supplement for 90 days, and saw a statistically significant 52.2% increase in progressive sperm motility (the ability to swim forward, which is key for reaching an egg).

How did the Bird&Be sperm study work?

We’re a brand that’s based on science—and that includes helping to advance research in the field of fertility. Our chief medical advisor Dr. Dan Nayot (humble-brag: he’s one of North America’s top reproductive endocrinologists and infertility specialists) led the research team and ensured top-notch data quality. Here’s how the process played out:

  • The study was approved by the Institutional Review Board (the official ethics board), and we invested in a study coordinator, Kristen Di Stefano, to ensure compliance to the highest standards.

  • Participants (males from ages 18 to 45) were eligible if they had at least one abnormal semen analysis result. We also weeded out anyone who smoked, had a diagnosed varicocele or were already taking supplements.

  • The participants did an initial semen analysis at a reputable fertility clinic so we could record their baseline.

  • They then took The Powers for Males + CoQ10 Boost for 90 days (because sperm takes about 3 months to mature).

  • We re-did the semen analysis at the same lab to measure their (awesome) improvements.

  • Dr. Nayot presented the findings at Midwest Reproductive Symposium International (MRSI) conference.

What do the results mean?

The numbers on sperm motility were the most impressive: we saw a 52.2% statistically significant increase in progressive sperm motility. That means more sperm moving forward, and thus a greater chance of reaching the egg. Our study results provide real evidence that The Powers for Males + CoQ10 Boost can effectively improve sperm quality by increasing motility—a big win for men and couples hoping to conceive.

What does that mean for you? This one simple habit—adding The Powers for Males + CoQ10 Boost to your routine—can make a big difference in your sperm health in as little as 90 days.

What’s in The Powers for Males + CoQ10 Boost?

The Powers for Males + CoQ10 Boost covers off all the building blocks for healthy, mature sperm with Vitamins A, C and E, Zinc, Selenium, DHA and more (makes sense—it was formulated by fertility doctors). We added important extras, too, including antioxidants CoQ10, Trans-Resveratrol, N-Acetyl Cysteine, and L-Carnitine that protect against—and can even reverse—free-radical damage.  Importantly, the ingredients are all in bioavailable forms so that your body can put them to use right away. And rather than having to buy all these ingredients separately, we put them together at a lower cost and in a convenient grab-and-go daily pack so you never miss a dose.

What’s next?

We’re excited to keep sharing our findings with the medical community, continue fertility research, and explore the long-term benefits of our products on reproductive health. We hope to expand our research to include more participants and assess different areas of fertility research in the future.

"We formulate our supplements based on the best research, but now we can proudly validate their effectiveness too. Our goal is always to empower patients with science-backed solutions, and this IRB-approved study is another way of doing that."

Should I take The Powers for Males + CoQ10 Boost?

If you’re trying to conceive, the right nutrients can help give your sperm the best shot at successful fertilization. Male-factor infertility accounts for roughly 30 to 50% of infertility cases, and often sperm gets overlooked during TTC prep.  The good news is that sperm regenerates every 90-ish days, which means that small changes can make a big difference—and that includes adding supplements to your routine. The Powers for Males + CoQ10 Boost is specifically formulated to support your fertility journey.

If you’re worried you might be struggling with infertility due to sperm issues, our At-Home Sperm Test can help you learn more. The test can be done at home, in just 20 minutes, is 97% accurate, and can pinpoint low motile sperm concentration and sperm quality so you can get the support you need sooner—whether that’s supplementation or help from a doctor. It also comes with 2 tests so you can do your own little sperm study, testing before and after your new and improved supplement regimen.
