What does the male chromosome test check?

Modern medical technology has developed rapidly, and many advanced diagnostic and therapeutic medical technologies have emerged. Among them, gene testing technology is a relatively popular one, and its accuracy is very high. It has a positive effect on people's health prediction and disease treatment. For example, male chromosome testing is a relatively recommended test content. Let's take a look at what male chromosome testing is?

It is best for both husband and wife to do a pre-pregnancy check-up, so that they can have a clearer understanding of each other's physical constitution. Generally speaking, a chromosome test is to check whether there are any genetic diseases in the body. This test is very important. It is done by drawing blood, so before doing a chromosome test, you should go to the hospital for blood drawing on an empty stomach in the morning.

Chromosome examination is to observe the structure and number of chromosomes under a microscope using peripheral blood. The chromosome karyotype of a normal male is 44 autosomes plus 2 sex chromosomes X and Y, which is often represented by 46, XY in the examination report. The autosomes of a normal female are the same as those of a male, and the sex chromosomes are 2 XX, which is often represented by 46, XX. 46 represents the total number of chromosomes, and more or less than 46 is considered an abnormal number of chromosomes. The missing sex chromosome is often represented by O.

The first is routine examination: it is the most basic and main clinical indicator for determining male fertility, and the relevant parameters are what doctors need to investigate first.

The second is the biochemical examination of sperm: the analysis is helpful to understand the functions of the epididymis, prostate, and seminal vesicles.

The third is the examination of involved microorganisms: male urinary and reproductive system infections often lead to male infertility. The pathogenic microorganisms related to male urinary and reproductive system infections include bacteria, viruses, spirochetes, mycoplasmas, chlamydia, etc. Common ones include gonococci, tumor viruses, adenoplasmas, Chlamydia trachomatis, etc.

The fourth is endocrine examination: testing male sexual function and reproductive function, which is a major cause of male infertility. Endocrine examination mainly involves the measurement of sex hormones T, FSH, LH, PRL, E2 and various stimulation tests, such as HCG stimulation test, etc. The last one is genetic examination and life care.
