> what is the actual relationship between lower sperm count and fewer children? I mean, you have maybe 2-3 children and millions of sperm, surely they are not linearly related.
Indeed they are far from it. If you "only" ejaculate a few million, you are practically infertile. Even with reproductive assistance like IUI, the chance of conception is something like 1% at a level of 2 million sperm post wash (i.e. when they've selected the most viable sperm).
