10. Get your prostate checked Prostate cancer is the number one cancer in Nigerian men, and most cases are caught late because men avoid testing. If you're over 40, especially 45 and up, get a PSA blood test. It takes minutes.

7. Cut back on the heavy drinking Too much alcohol messes with your hormones. You end up making fewer sperm, and the ones you do make are weaker. None of this is magic. Get your sperm tested at a lab so you know where you stand, and if you've been trying for a baby with no result, see a urologist or fertility specialist to check for blockages or swollen veins in the testicles. Then stay consistent with these 7 and give your body time.

7. Ease off water in the evening Drink less once the evening starts. Then make two toilet trips non-negotiable: • Right before you go to sleep • Right after you wake up Fewer drinks late and an empty bladder at bedtime means fewer trips during the night. Seven simple daily habits: empty fully, stay regular, skip the meds that irritate it, cut caffeine and alcohol, pee on a schedule, stay warm, and drink less at night. Stick to them and you keep prostate symptoms down, and keep yourself away from the surgeon.
