I am wondering about the side effects of daily baths in very hot water for men. I had a semen analysis and was shocked to discover it contains no sperm. I enjoy hot baths. Could this be the cause?

For sperm to develop normally, the testicles need to remain at a constant temperature that is several degrees lower than elsewhere in the body. This is probably one reason why the testicles hang outside of the body. This is in contrast to womens ovaries, which are an equivalent reproductive organ. This need for a constant temperature is also why a mans scrotum contracts (shrinks) when exposed to very cold water.
I have had problems in the past with penile discharge. The doctor thought it was a sexually transmitted infection. But my tests were negative. What else could cause this?

I have genital herpes. I rarely have an outbreak -- maybe once a year or less, but of course I have no idea when an outbreak will happen. Should I be on Valtrex to prevent transmission of the disease?
