What are the male fertility tests?

If a couple wants to have a baby, a physical examination is very important, especially for women, which must be conducted comprehensively to avoid diseases in the body after pregnancy, which will affect the development of the fetus. In addition to women, men also need to undergo physical examinations. So what are the male fertility examination items? There are also many aspects. Let's introduce them in detail below.

Male fertility test items:

1. Ultrasound examination: It can exclude various conditions of testicular dysplasia and can also be used to examine varicocele. For patients with low semen volume and suspected distal vas deferens obstruction, rectal ultrasound examination can also be performed.

2. Semen analysis: This test helps to understand male fertility and is a must-check item for infertility. The test content includes color, volume, liquefaction time, pH, sperm count, motility, survival rate and morphology.

3. Endocrinology examination: The male hypothalamus-pituitary-testicular gonad axis plays a very important regulatory role in male reproductive activity. The measurement of these hormones is an important examination item for judging male reproductive function and is helpful for the clinical diagnosis and treatment of andrology.

4. Immunological examination: Anti-sperm antibodies are mandatory items, and the rest can be selected according to the patient's specific situation. Factors such as vas deferens obstruction, testicular damage and inflammation, and infection of the epididymis and epididymal gonads can cause the immune system to produce an immune response to self-antigens, and also form anti-sperm antibodies in the male body, causing immune infertility.

These are the male fertility examination items. Men need to do all of these examination items, and they must actively cooperate with each examination item. In this way, they will have a good grasp of their own specific conditions and avoid male diseases. Especially when examining the male reproductive organs, men must cooperate even more.
