Understanding semen analysis
A simple, standard semen analysis provides information on important parameters such as sperm count, motility and morphology. It is one of the most important tests in evaluating male fertility.
-
The sperm count refers to the number of sperm observed in the sample.
-
Sperm motility refers to the speed at which the sperm are moving - or not.
-
The sperm morphology refers to the shape of the sperm.
-
A normal sample would be expected to have high numbers of rapidly moving sperm.
The sperm count and motility are generally agreed to be the most important indicators of the male fertility level. This is also referred to as TMSC (Total Motile Sperm Concentration). Your semen analysis report wsill include your TMSC, along with the reference ranges for fertility status.
