How much does it cost to check sperm quality?

Sperm testing is one of the most basic ways to check a man’s fertility. The sperm collection procedure during the test is very important. It must be strictly implemented in accordance with the regulations so that the test results will be accurate and reasonable. Under normal circumstances, it does not cost much to check the quality of sperm, because each hospital uses different testing instruments and the cost is also different. So how much does it cost to check the quality of sperm?

One is a very simple test method, which costs about 25 yuan and can produce results in 2 hours. The other is a very complicated inspection method, which costs about 120 yuan and requires a wizard to get the result. It is recommended that everyone make a basic judgment by doing simple inspection methods. It is recommended that male patients should abstain from sexual intercourse for 5-7 days before testing sperm, and the first drop of discharged semen must be collected into the specimen, so that the test results are reasonable. Simple inspection methods include the PH value of semen, sperm survival rate, percentage of sperm forward movement, sperm vaporization time, and semen volume. Basic judgments can be made based on these. If there is an abnormality, complicated testing methods can be done to find the best treatment plan.

You should abstain from sexual intercourse for 3-7 days before the test. If the abstinence time is too short, sperm density and sperm count will be insufficient; if the abstinence time is too long, male sperm motility will decrease, affecting the accuracy of the test. Avoid periods of poor physical and mental health, such as after catching a cold, having a fever or drinking too much. Because oligozoospermia or necrozoospermia may occur at this time, it will also affect the accuracy of the test. When male sperm is sampled, it is best to collect it on the spot in the hospital outpatient department. Generally, the sperm is collected by masturbating in the sperm testing room or the hospital's outpatient bathroom. The sample is reexamined immediately after sampling to prevent the sperm from being paraffin sectioned for too long or being contaminated by the environment during the process.
