What does the Advanced Semen Analysis measure?

The Advanced Semen Analysis evaluates all key parameters of sperm quality:

  • Semen volume: How much semen you’re producing
  • Sperm concentration: How many sperm are present in your semen
  • Sperm motility: How many of your sperm are moving — a crucial indicator of your sperm’s health and fertility
  • Total motile sperm count: The final calculation of your sperm quality and quantity, which is highly correlated to your chances of creating a pregnancy
  • Sperm morphology: How many of your sperm are the proper size and shape
  • Sperm DNA fragmentation: The degree of damage to the genetic information carried by sperm, which can cause infertility, pregnancy loss, or health issues for the future child
  • Post-thaw analysis: We freeze and thaw a small portion of your sample to assess if it’s a good candidate for cryopreservation (sperm freezing)
