Semen analysis, also known as sperm test or spermogram (SPG), is a non-invasive, painless diagnostic procedure used to assess male fertility. The test provides detailed information about sperm count, motility, morphology, and other critical parameters – all based on WHO guidelines.
This examination is especially important when couples face difficulties conceiving, but it can also be part of a routine fertility assessment for men planning for future parenthood.
The semen sample must be collected after 3–5 days of sexual abstinence for accurate results. The sample is obtained by masturbation, and the analysis is only valid if the entire ejaculate is collected.
Ideally, the sample should be collected on-site at the clinic, in a dedicated, private room. However, home sample collection is also possible if strict conditions are met.
Use a sterile urine sample container from a pharmacy.
Label the container clearly with the patient’s full name, social security number (TAJ), and the date of collection.
To preserve the quality of the sample, wrap the container in aluminum foil to maintain body temperature.
Deliver the sample to the laboratory within 1 hour of collection.
A complete semen analysis will typically assess:
Volume and pH of the ejaculate
Total sperm count and concentration per milliliter
Motility (progressive and non-progressive movement)
Morphology (sperm shape and structure)
Presence of white blood cells and other cells
Detection of abnormal particles or debris
In cases of infertility lasting more than one year
As part of a general fertility check-up
Following a history of urological or testicular conditions
During andrological assessments or pre-treatment evaluations
