Patient's question:
How much does the cost of testing male sperm? One of my close friends recently wants to have a child, but because of his long-term smoking and drinking, he is very afraid that there will be problems with the child, so he wants to do a routine semen examination, so he needs to know how much it costs to do this kind of examination. How much does a male sperm test cost?Doctor's answer:
The patient should stop sexual intercourse for 4 to 7 days. One week before the examination, testosterone propionate, testosterone phenylacetate, and nandrolone phenylpropionate should not be used. When collecting semen, penile massage can be performed using mild soap or petroleum jelly, and the sample should be collected in a sterile tube. Alternatively, a condom (cleaned, without spermicidal agents) or the coitus interruptus method can be used to collect semen, but the amount collected this way is often insufficient. If semen cannot be collected using the above methods, rectal massage of the seminal vesicles and the terminal part of the vas deferens, as well as compression-induced urination, can be performed to check for sperm in the sediment. Do not expose semen to excessively hot or cold environments. It should be promptly handed over to the doctor for examination, with a maximum delay of 30 minutes. In cold weather, take precautions to keep it warm and place it in a pocket of inner clothing during transport. The cost of a semen examination is approximately 100 yuan, and it is recommended that you consult a local hospital.
