How do you know if your sperm quality is good?

Some of the signs of unhealthy sperm are problems with sexual activity (erectile dysfunction), the sperm being an unhealthy colour, such as yellow or red, or a low volume of sperm when ejaculating.

What are the signs of unhealthy sperm?

Though there are some sperm test kits to use at home, the best way to check your sperm quality is to use a professional fertility clinic or a sperm bank, to make sure the examination is performed correct.
If you prefer to do it at home, it is possible for you to make the sperm sample at home and bring it in for the sperm analysis. If you wish to make the sample at home, we just need it at one of <a title="See where our locations are" href="/en-gb/dk-shop/private/about-us/contact-cryos/">our locations</a> within 1 hour of ejaculation.

Can I check my sperm count at home?

To get a sperm quality test, you must make a sperm sample for our lab to analyse. If you make the sample at home, we need it within an hour. You can also choose to make the sample in a private room in one of <a title="See all of our locations here" href="/en-gb/dk-shop/private/about-us/contact-cryos/">our locations</a>. When our lab has received the sample, we analyse it and look at various factors, such as the number of healthy sperm cells, motility, and quality of the sperm cells.

<h2>Here is how a sperm analysis is conducted&nbsp;</h2>
At Cryos, you can&nbsp;have&nbsp;your sperm quality tested. Please&nbsp;contact us and schedule an appointment in advance. In that way,&nbsp;our&nbsp;staff can do an initial screening by phone and will be&nbsp;ready to welcome you when you arrive. We have departments in Copenhagen, Aarhus, Odense and Aalborg.&nbsp;Find&nbsp;the&nbsp;contact information&nbsp;for&nbsp;our departments here.&nbsp;&nbsp;
When you arrive, please proceed to our reception. You will be asked to fill in documents regarding the sperm analysis when you show up, or have the documents sent for signature in advance. The staff will then direct you to a small, private room where you can make the sperm sample. When your sample is ready, you hand it to our staff in the reception.
Alternatively, it is possible to do the sperm sample at home. We just need the sperm sample within 1 hour after the ejaculation. We recommend that the sperm is stored at body temperature - for instance under the arm or in the waistband.
To obtain the best result, we recommend sexual abstinence for at least 2 days prior to the sperm test.
You will receive the result of the test via e-mail or telephone. You are always welcome to contact us if you have any additional questions about sperm analyses.
