semen analysis

A semen analysis is a test that evaluates a man’s fertility by examining a semen sample under a microscope. It measures the volume, sperm count, motility (movement), and shape (morphology) of the sperm. These factors help determine if sperm are healthy and capable of fertilizing an egg. The test can identify issues like low sperm numbers, poor movement, or abnormal shapes that might affect fertility. It’s a standard part of fertility assessments and provides useful information for diagnosing reproductive concerns or planning treatment options.
