Semen Analysis test in Bangalore
What is Semen Analysis?
Introduction
Semen analysis, also known as a sperm count test, is a diagnostic tool used to evaluate the health and viability of a man's sperm. It is a key component in assessing male fertility and can help identify potential issues that may be contributing to infertility.
Key Parameters Measured in Semen Analysis
Sperm Count: The total number of sperm present in a sample. A normal count is typically over 15 million sperm per milliliter of semen.
Sperm Motility: The percentage of sperm that are moving and their movement quality. This includes both progressive motility (moving forward) and non-progressive motility (moving but not forward).
Sperm Morphology: The shape and structure of the sperm. This assesses the percentage of sperm with a normal shape.
Volume: The amount of semen produced during ejaculation. Normal volume ranges from 1.5 to 5 milliliters.
pH Level: The acidity or alkalinity of the semen. Normal semen pH is slightly alkaline, between 7.2 and 8.0.
Liquefaction Time: The time it takes for semen to liquefy after ejaculation, typically within 20 to 30 minutes.
Viscosity: The thickness of the semen, which can affect sperm movement.
Presence of White Blood Cells: Indicative of possible infection or inflammation.
