What is a Semen Analysis?
The Semen Analysis commonly referred to as the sperm count test, evaluates the health and the viability of the Sperm of a man. Semen is the liquid that contains Sperm (plus additional protein and sugar substances) that is released when you ejaculate.
Reading the lab report
The lab report on semen analysis will examine a variety of factors which include:
Volume The normal volume ranges between 1.5 and 5.0 millilitres (a millilitre roughly corresponds to one teaspoon). The low volume can be an indication of obstructions in the ejaculatory drainage channels. Ejaculation that is retrograde, in which the semen is inserted into the bladder instead of leaving the body, can result in low volume.
Content of semen: Researchers are learning more about the human body through studying the contents and composition of semen. Based on the information from the content of the semen, additional tests of blood may be conducted to look for signs of infection or other health issues.
Sperm count: The count indicates the amount of sperm present in this sample of semen. The normal sperm count could be between 70 and 80 million sperm/mL. People with a low sperm count might be very fertile if their sperm is "high quality." But, having an unsatisfactory sperm count could be a sign of a problem within the body, giving doctors a clue to consider further tests and treatment.
Sperm motility: Sperm motility refers to the way the sperm swims, moves, or fights to move through the uterus, cervix, and fallopian tube toward the egg. Normal sperm motility occurs when at least 50 percent of the sperm move. The lab technician will examine to determine whether the sperm move at a rapid pace, how fast they move, and whether they move in a straight line.
