Problem: Article: Making sure you have a stable, healthy sperm count can increase your chances at getting your partner pregnant. Some studies indicate high temperatures around the scrotum can affect sperm production. Take measures to keep your groin cool to increase your chance at pregnancy.  Avoid saunas and hot tubs. Try not to use warm electronics, like laptops, on your lap as this can affect sperm count.  Try wearing loose-fitting underwear to increase airflow to your groin. You can also minimize the time you spend sitting, as this can heat up your scrotum. Like women, men can increase their fertility by eating a healthier plant-based diet. The antioxidants found in fruits and vegetables may help sperm stay healthy. Try to snack on fruits and veggies throughout the day. Have a salad before dinner and vegetable or fruit based side dishes. Try skipping dessert a few nights a week in favor of fruit for a sweet after dinner treat. Moderate physical activity may help increase sperm count. Try to incorporate some light walking, jogging, or biking into your daily routine. You could, for example, ride your bike to work instead of walking each day. You could also make a point of taking your dog for a long walk before bed each night. All of this can potentially increase your sperm count. Toxins found in pesticides and household products may have an effect on sperm count. If you work a job, like construction, that requires you to work with toxins, take preventative measures. Always wear protective clothing to prevent skin contact with chemicals. If you and your partner are struggling to conceive, consider seeing a fertility doctor to have a sperm count done. You will provide a semen sample, which will be medically tested to count the sperm. A sperm count lower than 15 million per milliliter of semen is considered low. Do not panic if your sperm count is low. There are many medical treatments, such as taking hormones and surgical options, that can correct a low sperm count. You will have to talk to your doctor to see which options are right for you given your medical history and current health.
Summary: Keep cool. Eat a diet rich in fruits and vegetables. Exercise. Watch your exposure to toxins. Get a sperm count.

Problem: Article: When you really like someone, you tend to focus on their positives. This is particularly the case when you can’t have them. But this isn’t reality: everyone has flaws and it would be good for you to think about them instead of what you like about the person. Make a list of why the relationship wouldn’t work. Also, write down what you don’t particularly like about the person. Refer back to it when you’re feeling down about not being able to be with the person. If you can’t be together because the other person doesn’t want to, simply accept that there’s nothing you can do about it. No matter what you say or do, the person is still likely going to feel the same way. Stop getting your hopes up and torturing yourself by trying to convince them otherwise.  It may also help to be frank with yourself. You might say, "Get a grip, Samantha. You can't date Peter because he's married. He's off-limits." Otherwise, if the person can’t see how valuable you are, then they don’t deserve you. Remember to tell yourself this at times when you are feeling low. Having self-love right now is key to moving on. Do things that make you feel strong and empowered. Focus on nurturing yourself, such as with positive affirmations, pampering, and doing other activities that you enjoy. For example, if you have a favorite hobby, then setting aside time each day or a few times per week to do that would be a good way to practice self-compassion.  Self-love and compassion may also translate to taking it easy on yourself. Be okay with less-than-perfect work performance. Allow yourself a night off to binge-watch TV shows or movies. Call a friend to let them know you're feeling low. It may be wise to seek the help of a therapist if you are struggling with self-esteem problems. The therapist may be able to encourage you to see just how valuable you are and this may help you to move on.
Summary: Avoid idealizing the person. Accept that you can’t be with them. Practice self-compassion.

Problem: Article: Committing a crime, no matter how small, in front of at least one person or domestic animal will add a bounty price to your head. If a guard in the hold in which you committed the crime(s) catches you, they will attempt to detain you, at which point you'll be prompted to give in, attempt to talk your way out of it, or resist arrest. Resisting arrest is inadvisable due to the sheer volume of guards which will attack you, leading to a high death count (and, by extension, a higher bounty). If you've only just incurred a bounty, you may be able to kill any witnesses (including animals, bandits, and town folk) who witnessed the crime.  If you've left the Hold in which you obtained the bounty, you can't kill the witnesses to prevent the bounty. Beware of causing too much of a scene. If you kill a human witness in front of another person, you can potentially create a snowball effect where your bounty increases as you rack up a body count. If you committed a crime in full view of a guard, they may start attacking you. You can prompt them to stop attacking by putting away your weapon. This won't always work. You may need to exit the city and then re-enter it at a later time if putting away your weapon doesn't deter the guards' attacks. You can see a list of Holds—as well as each Hold's bounty—in the menu:   Consoles — Press Start (Xbox) or Options (PlayStation), scroll over to the GENERAL STATS tab, scroll down to the CRIME section, and review your Holds' bounties.  PC — Open the menu, scroll over to the GENERAL STATS tab, scroll down to the CRIME section, and review your Holds' bounties. To the right of each Hold name, you'll see a number; that number refers to the number of gold your bounty is worth. If you see a 0 here, you don't have a bounty in your selected Hold.
Summary: Understand what contributes to a bounty. Kill any witnesses if possible. Stop the guard response to a crime you just committed. Check the Hold in which you have a bounty. Check your bounty's amount.
