Semen Analysis Test in Mumbai

Importance of Semen Analysis for Fertility Assessment

Male factor infertility is one of the leading causes of conception challenges. A semen analysis test is recommended for couples struggling to conceive, as it provides detailed insights into sperm quality. The test helps identify problems like low sperm count, poor motility, and abnormal sperm morphology, which may affect the chances of pregnancy.

Step-by-Step Process of Semen Analysis

• Semen Sample Collection – The patient provides a semen sample, either at the clinic or from home, ensuring a 2-5 day abstinence period for accuracy.
• Sample Preparation – The collected semen is liquefied and processed for laboratory examination.
• Microscopic Evaluation – The sample is analyzed under a microscope to check sperm count, movement, and structure.
• Result Interpretation – The test results provide a detailed analysis of sperm health, assisting doctors in recommending appropriate treatments.

Key Parameters Examined in Semen Analysis

• Sperm Count – Determines the concentration of sperm per milliliter of semen.
• Motility – Evaluates the percentage of sperm that can move effectively.
