Semen Analysis/sperm count/male fertility all mean the same — a test of a man’s semen or sperm. The results show the number of sperm released, the shape of the sperm and also how well they move. Semen is a thick fluid that gets released from a man’s penis when they ejaculate during masturbation or sexual activity, often called cum. It helps to undertake the first stage of pregnancy (create an embryo and fertilise an egg).

What is Semen?

Semen is a whitish-grey fluid released from the penis, usually after orgasm. It contains the sperms, seminal fluid, and nutrients. Sperms are reproductive cells, each with a head containing genetic material and a tail that helps them swim. Fluids help to lubricate the urethra and help in depositing sperm into the uterus of a female. Proteins/Vitamins/Minerals nourish and support the sperm cells.

When is a Semen Analysis Performed?

Semen Testing is performed to carry out an Infertility Evaluation. When couples find it difficult to have a baby after regular sexual activity. In that scenario, to check male infertility, a semen analysis helps identify potential abnormalities in sperm health.

Semen Analysis Procedure

The Semen Examination Procedure is easy to understand and takes very little time. Understand the 3 steps of Semen Analysis to check the male infertility problem.

Collecting the Sample

The specialists at Embrion will give you a sterile container to collect the sample of your semen, most commonly through masturbation. If you can’t masturbate due to personal or religious reasons, you can also use a non-lubricated condom during intercourse to collect the sample.

Preparation

To get accurate results, do not indulge in sexual activity for a few days before the test, as instructed by your doctor.

Sample Handling

If you decide to collect the sample at home, then you should deliver or get it delivered to the clinic within an hour and kept at room temperature to maintain sperm viability (we can help you transport the sperm to our center).

What does the Semen Analysis Measure?

Semen Testing measures many factors that are quite important to understanding fertility health. Here is a list of what the analysis tells us. It shows the number of sperm(s) in your semen and how well the sperm moves, which is very important for reaching and fertilising an egg. Also, it shows the sperm morphology, which is the size/shape of your sperm, which can affect fertility. Other than that, the acidity/alkalinity of your semen, the amount of semen produced, how quickly your semen changes from a thick substance to a liquid, the % of live sperm in the sample, and the presence of WBC might mean an infection.

Understanding the Results of Semen Analysis

Understanding the results of the Semen Examination can give you important details about your fertility health and help you take the next steps. Here is what the results mean :

Normal Results : These indicate that your sperm count, motility, and morphology are in the normal range, which shows you have a good chance of conception.

Abnormal Results : This means you may have fertility issues. A lot of other reasons can also affect sperm health. In such cases, further tests can help find underlying medical issues like hormonal imbalances or genetic factors (if any).

Once doctors receive your results, they check for abnormalities. If found, they may ask you to have some additional tests done. Doctors at Embrion might suggest multiple tests for Semen Testing over a few weeks to understand your sperm health properly. After additional tests happen, doctors will decide the procedure.
