What are the precautions to check sperm vitality?

Patient's question:

Hello, I would like to inquire about the precautions for checking sperm vitality. I have been married for four years, but my wife hasn't been pregnant yet. Her check-up results are normal, so I want to do a sperm check to see if there is a problem with me. How is the sperm vitality check performed, and what precautions should be taken?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, checking sperm viability requires a semen analysis. Low sperm viability directly affects fertility and needs to be taken seriously with timely treatment.
Precautions for Semen Analysis:
You need to go to the urology department of a regular, large hospital in your area for the test. Usually, you should abstain from sex for 7 days before going to the hospital. Sperm is collected through masturbation for analysis, and generally, a viability rate above 60% is required for pregnancy.
Before the test, avoid alcohol and spicy, stimulating foods.
In your daily life, it’s important to focus on sperm health. Eating foods high in protein can help improve sperm health and boost the immune system.
Wishing you good health.
