How to get sperm out for pregnancy test

For couples who want to have a healthy baby, do you know that it is not only the female friends who need to do pre-pregnancy physical examination, but also the male friends' pre-pregnancy physical examination is very important? The pre-pregnancy physical examination for men will include a sperm test, so how to collect sperm during the pre-pregnancy physical examination? Let's learn about it together below.

How to obtain sperm during pre-pregnancy check-up?

There are many processes for sperm collection before pregnancy:

1. Stop sexual intercourse for 3 to 7 days

Stop sexual intercourse for 3 to 7 days, and do not have masturbation, frequent ejaculation, or other ejaculatory conditions. No history of fever, sauna bathing, or sitz bathing within two weeks.

2. Collect semen with a container

Collect semen with the special container provided by the laboratory. All ejaculated semen must be collected in the cup and cannot be left out. Then send it to the laboratory for examination immediately. Pay special attention to keeping warm in winter. Put it in the pocket of your underwear and send it to the chemical laboratory as soon as possible (within 1 hour).

3. It is best to use a penis to extract sperm

It is best to use dildo to extract sperm, and you can ask your wife to help, or use massagers and other equipment; if you really can't get it out, you can choose to collect semen by terminating sexual intercourse or ejaculating outside the body.

4. Condoms cannot be used

Condoms cannot be used because they can kill sperm and semen can easily stick to the condom. However, for patients without sperm, the use of condoms can be considered as appropriate because the presence of male sperm remains can deny the diagnosis of azoospermia.

Warm reminder: Men should wash their hands and genitals and cut their nails before sperm collection to prevent injuries during sperm collection.

What does a men’s pre-pregnancy checkup include?

1. The most important thing in a man's pre-pregnancy physical examination is sperm testing: Many male friends are reluctant to test sperm because it is inconvenient to collect sperm. In fact, it is relatively inconvenient to collect sperm through a tube for testing. However, compared with the annoyance and cost of the wife's fertility test, sperm testing has become very convenient. It is also because it is definitely not easy to test sperm during routine physical examinations, so it is more necessary for men to go to the doctor to show their sperm.

2. Male urinary system problems have a huge impact on the health of the next generation, so the inspection of this private part is essential. If you feel that there may be problems with your testicular development, you must first ask your parents whether you have had mumps in childhood, whether you have experienced cryptorchidism, testicular trauma and surgical treatment, testicular pain and swelling, hydrocele, oblique hernia, urethral discharge, etc., and provide this information to the doctor and consult carefully.

3. If some people have not had a full body physical examination or a pre-marital examination for two years, then it is also necessary to test for infectious diseases such as hepatitis, syphilis, and AIDS.
