Patient's question:
Hello doctor, I am planning to have a child. What is the best time for a sperm test? I searched online and found some answers saying that male semen tests should be done 2-7 days after intercourse, while others say to abstain from sex for 3-5 days before the test. Please advise on the optimal testing time. Thank you. What is the best time for a sperm test?Doctor's answer:
Hello, for a routine semen analysis, you can undergo the test if you haven't ejaculated for 2-7 days. Additionally, before the test, you should abstain from smoking and alcohol, and avoid taking medications that may affect sperm production. For your health, if you have infertility issues, please seek timely treatment at a formal and professional high-tech rapid pregnancy hospital. It is mainly important to conduct a targeted examination based on your individual circumstances, and follow the doctor's guidance for symptomatic treatment. Wishing you good health.
