Understanding Semen Analysis at Center
Semen is a whitish-gray fluid made by the male reproductive organs, in particular the testicles, and released during ejaculation. It consists of sperm cells that are needed to fertilize an egg and achieve pregnancy. Semen also contains nutrients and protective substances that sustain the sperm and help them traverse the female reproductive system.
The semen analysis test is a laboratory test tailored to assess the quality and quantity of sperm in a sample of semen. It provides quantitative and qualitative analysis of sperm count, motility and morphology, along with volume and pH. These analyses can help diagnose male fertility and provide information about problems such as low sperm count (with pathological nomenclature asthenozoospermia), whether there was low motility (asthenozoospermia) or an issue with the sperm shape (teratozoospermia), which may affect a man's ability to conceive.
The semen analysis test is used to be performed if someone has been trying to conceive with a partner for more than 1 year, without successful conception. It can also be done as part of infertility assessments or to verify the success rate of vasectomy. This test can also assess if someone has a male fertility problem, as well as genetic issues impacting the sperm health. Additionally, it is useful in diagnosing conditions like infections or hormonal imbalances that can impair sperm production and overall fertility.
To conduct the semen analysis, a man provides a semen sample in a sterile container. It’s recommended to abstain from sexual activity or masturbation for 2 to 7 days before the test, but not for more than two weeks, as longer abstinence can result in less active sperm. Before the sample collection, the patient should urinate, wash the genital area with warm water, and dry the area. Additionally, it’s advised to limit alcohol intake before the test. It is also important to inform the doctor about any medications or herbal supplements being taken, as they can affect the results of the semen analysis.
Test result ranges may vary across different laboratories. Abnormal test results require an expert interpretation. Therefore, never try to self-medicate at home based solely on these results. Always consult a doctor for a proper understanding of the test results.
