Home test to reveal sperm quality

Many men may find it awkward to have to provide a sperm sample on demand at a clinic, or feel that this goes beyond their boundaries. Therefore, many men may be pleased to know that it is now possible to perform a test at home.


Danish specialists have developed a home test that can give an indication of sperm quality and therefore the man’s ability to make a partner pregnant naturally. You get the answer in 30 minutes, and the test is about 95% accurate.

The test measures the number of sperm cells per millilitre. The test also measures the quality of the sperm by assessing the sperm cells’ ability to swim. Those are the two parameters that the World Health Organization (WHO) considers essential for determining the quality of sperm cells.

The test result is easy to check on a colour scale.

A positive test is no guarantee of fertility, but the test can be used to identify fertility problems at an early stage so that something can be done about the situation before it is too late.

If the result is negative, you are always welcome to have a test performed at Vitanova, which can determine more accurately whether your sperm quality is low.
