2. Urinary and reproductive system examination

Problems with the male urinary system 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. General physical examination

If you haven't had a full-body physical examination or a pre-marital checkup for two years, then it is also necessary to check for infectious diseases such as hepatitis, syphilis, and AIDS. The doctor will also continue to learn in detail about the physical condition of the person being examined and his or her family members in the past, what kind of symptoms they have had, how they were treated, etc., and pay special attention to understanding mental illnesses, genetic diseases, etc. If necessary, it is also required to check chromosomes and blood types.

As can be seen from the above, men can check the viability of sperm, that is, the quality of sperm, the urinary system, and whether there are infectious diseases by checking chromosomes. Some diseases cannot cause pregnancy and will affect the child, and may be passed on to the child by genes. Men must cooperate with doctors during physical examinations, not conceal their illnesses, and tell their own physical conditions to facilitate doctors' judgment and advice.
