Reproductive Health Assessments for Men
Like women's reproductive health assessments, male reproductive health assessments can also involve a combination of different tests, depending on the specific circumstance and requirement. These could include:​
Blood Tests
Measure hormone levels, follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), and luteinising hormone (LH). This helps evaluate if there are any hormonal imbalances affecting sperm production.
Semen Analysis
Assess sperm count, motility (movement), and morphology (shape). This is a key test to determine if there are any issues with sperm production or quality.
Physical Exam
Checking for signs of hormone deficiency like increased body fat or decreased muscle mass, as well as examining the genitals for any abnormalities.
Urologist Referral if Required
A crucial step in diagnosing and addressing male fertility issues, offering patients the best possible chance for achieving a successful pregnancy.
