Patient's question:
Hello, I would like to inquire about the precautions for checking sperm quality. My wife and I have been married for almost a year now, and we haven't taken any contraceptive measures, but she hasn't shown any signs of pregnancy yet. Could this be related to my sperm? I want to check if there are any issues with my sperm. What are the precautions for checking sperm quality?Doctor's answer:
You don't need to worry too much. Men should stop sexual activity 4-7 days before collecting semen and should not experience masturbation or nocturnal emissions during this period. Attention should also be paid to diet and daily hygiene, especially maintaining local hygiene. The best time to collect semen is in the morning. Before collection, the glans should be washed. Semen can be extracted through masturbation or sexual intercourse. Deliver the semen to the doctor promptly for examination.
