Sperm Agglutination

Sperm agglutination refers to the clumping together of sperm cells, which can impact fertility. This occurs when antibodies or other substances in the body recognize sperm as foreign and cause them to stick together. When sperm are agglutinated, it can hinder their movement, making it more difficult for them to reach and fertilize an egg. Sperm agglutination can be detected through specific laboratory tests and may indicate underlying fertility issues, often requiring further investigation or treatment to improve the chances of conception.
