Patient's question:
Preparing to have a child with my wife, I heard that before pregnancy, both partners need to be checked for infertility. I would like to consult, what specific tests are needed for male infertility?Doctor's answer:
The examination for male infertility is relatively simpler compared to that for females because males sacrifice less in the process of conception. The main examinations include understanding the medical history, checking routine semen analysis, sperm morphology, anti-sperm antibodies, seminal plasma superpower, and infectious diseases. Among these, the most basic examination is the routine semen analysis, which needs to be conducted within 3 to 7 days of feeling cold. Therefore, it is recommended to schedule your time when your body is in good condition, avoiding alcohol consumption, overtime work, or undergoing examinations during illness.
