Semen Analysis Overview:
In cases of infertility, the male partner is a contributing factor in approximately 50% of cases. A full semen analysis typically evaluates sperm count (concentration), moving sperm (motility), normally shaped sperm (morphology), and other parameters. One of the most critical factors in achieving pregnancy is the number of motile sperm in the sample. If sperm cannot swim to the egg, natural conception is not possible.
The YO Home Sperm Test is not a full semen analysis but rather a convenient first screening to assess key aspects of sperm health. YO analyzes five essential parameters:
- Concentration
- Motility %
- Progressive Motility %
- Motile Sperm Concentration
- Progressive Motile Sperm Concentration
Additionally, YO provides a video recording of your sperm sample, allowing you to visually confirm motility and movement as part of the test.
