Patient's question:
Hello doctor, I would like to ask what are the items checked in a routine semen analysis? How long does it take to get the results of a semen test? Because I have been married for a year now and still don't have any children, I would like to do a related semen test this weekend as I don't have much time. What are the items checked in a routine semen analysis?Doctor's answer:
Hello! For a urological examination at the hospital, the following tests are recommended:1. Urine test
2. Prostate fluid culture and routine examination
3. Urethral discharge test (Gonorrhea smear, Mycoplasma, Chlamydia)
4. Blood PSA test (t/fPSA)
5. Semen routine examination
