Sperm analysis

Sperm analysis is a test that evaluates male fertility by examining a semen sample. It assesses several factors such as sperm count (number of sperm), motility (movement), shape (morphology), volume, and overall health. These measurements help determine the ability of sperm to fertilize an egg. The process involves collecting a semen sample, usually through masturbation, then analyzing it under a microscope. Results provide valuable information for diagnosing fertility issues and guiding treatment options. The test is straightforward and typically done at a healthcare facility or fertility clinic.
