Test Your Fertility Profile

A male fertility profile test helps in keeping a record, evaluating your fertility, and deciding on the treatment plan. Below is the list of tests that are included in the fertility profile.

Physical Examination: An examination of the testicles, epididymis, and penis is an initial step for assessing any abnormalities that may lead to fertility issues in males.

Hormonal Evaluation: Follicle stimulating hormone, Luteinising Hormone, Testosterone, and Prolactin are the important hormones that are evaluated. Healthy levels of these hormones are essential for the proper functioning of the male reproductive system.

Semen analysis:

In this assessment, we look at certain physical characteristics like volume or quantity of the ejaculate, pH, time taken to liquefy & levels of fructose. Microscopic examination helps us to measure the count or concentration of the sperm, motility (forward and sideways), morphological characteristics of the sperm (size and shape), sperm DNA fragmentation index & concentration of white blood cells. This analysis helps the assessment of the male fertility profile.

Pre-Requisites for semen analysis

The prerequisites for semen analysis are three to five days of sexual abstinence and blood reports for HIV, Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, and VDRL. We do not accept semen samples without these reports.

Genetic Testing:

Genetic testing is done to know if the patient is having any of the following conditions Klinefelter syndrome (Azoospermia), Cystic fibrosis gene mutation, Y chromosome deletions, Chromosomal translocations, and Noonan syndrome. Males with these genetic disorders may find it difficult to impregnate a woman.
