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 and still don't have 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 (gonococcal smear, mycoplasma, chlamydia)
4. Blood PSA test (t/fPSA)
5. Semen routine examination
6. Sperm function test
7. Seminal plasma biochemical examination
8. Sperm immunological examination
9. Male reproductive endocrine examination (blood testosterone T, follicle-stimulating hormone FSH, luteinizing hormone LH, prolactin PRL, estrogen E2)
10. Male reproductive system biopsy (azospermia). Please have the examination done at a formal hospital.
The above is the suggestion for the question "What are the tests included in a semen routine examination?" Hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
