How do male fertility tests work? Posted: 04-05-07 06:13am
I'm curious about how well the Baby First
Male Fertility Test works. We aren't
expecting to have a test done at a
doctor's office in the next month and are
wondering if this is reasonably accurate
and easy to use.
The Baby First Male Fertility Test is a
home test that is easy to use. However,
the test's results are only relatively
true. This test does not count
spermatozoids but indirectly shows if your
sperm count is above or under 20 millions
spermatozoids in 1 ml sperm. Normal sperm
count should be above 20 millions in 1ml
sperm.
Another interesting point to consider is
that this test tells us nothing about the
spermatozoids’ vitality, mobility,
morphology and functional abilities which
are also very important for male
fertility.
You can take the test but you can’t rely
on the results too much. Male fertility
tests at your doctor’s office are much
more reliable.
