What should men pay attention to before semen examination?

Everyone knows that normal couples need to undergo a premarital medical examination before getting married, and the man's semen examination is one of the premarital examinations. So what should the man pay attention to before the semen examination? Is there anything he shouldn't do? Let me introduce to you in detail the issues that men should pay attention to before the semen examination;

Abstinence is required before the test

Before a sperm test, men need to abstain from sex for 3 to 5 days, during which they cannot masturbate or ejaculate. In addition, too little or too much abstinence will affect the quality of sperm, thus affecting the test results.

Best collected in the morning

The best time to collect semen is in the morning, and it is best to wash your hands, genitals, and especially the glans with warm water before collecting semen. You can also use electric massage ejaculation to induce ejaculation to obtain semen.

Methods of collecting semen

When collecting semen, you can use soft soap or paraffin oil to massage the penis and collect the sample in a sterile test tube; you can also use the method of interrupting sexual intercourse to collect semen, but the amount collected in this way is often not much. If semen cannot be collected using the above methods, you can massage the seminal vesicle and the end of the vas deferens through the rectum, compress urine collection, and check whether there are sperm in the sediment.

Storage of semen

The container for semen should be clean, sterile and dry, and the temperature of the container should be the same as room temperature before semen collection. In cold weather, semen samples should be kept warm and placed in the underwear pocket, not tilted or inverted, and sent to the laboratory within 1 hour as much as possible.

Don't use condoms

Some male friends believe that condoms are the best bags for collecting sperm, but this is actually a wrong idea.

The above article describes the issues that men should pay attention to before having their semen checked. I believe that everyone has a deep understanding of this after reading this. I also hope that all male friends can live a healthy life, and I also hope that this article can help more people.
