Semen Analysis Process Step-by-Step Explained

Pre-Semen Analysis Process

Before your Semen Analysis appointment, it's essential to prepare adequately to ensure accurate results. Here's what you need to do:

1. Schedule Your Appointment: Contact our clinic to schedule your Semen Analysis appointment at a convenient time.

2. Abstain from Ejaculation: To obtain the most accurate results, refrain from ejaculating for 2-5 days before your appointment. This period of abstinence helps ensure a sufficiently large and representative sample.

3. Avoid Certain Factors: Avoid alcohol, tobacco, and caffeine as these substances can affect sperm motility and morphology.

4. Inform Your Doctor: If you're taking any medications or have any health conditions, inform your doctor before the analysis, as certain medications or health issues can affect sperm parameters.

On the day of your Semen Analysis appointment, our experienced professionals will guide you through the process with care and expertise. Here's what to expect:
