The Male Fertility Test gives insight into estimated levels of sperm in your semen. Giving you the answers you need in as little as 5 minutes to support your fertility and planning journey.

Infertility is usually defined as the inability of a couple to conceive after one year or more of unprotected, frequent sexual intercourse. There are many different causes of infertility, both male and female. Millions of people worldwide are affected by infertility with it often having a significant impact on overall wellbeing. Approximately 20% of infertility cases are as a result of male infertility. In the male reproductive system, infertility is often caused by the absence or low levels of sperm, abnormal shape or movement of the sperm, or problems with the ejection of sperm.

The easy-to-use CE-approved testing kit is mailed immediately on purchase and should reach you within 1-3 working days.

In the box, there will be full instructions provided on how to complete the sample and testing process in 5 minutes.

The Male Fertility Test kit detects Acrosomal Protein SP-10 on sperm which is specific to male germ cells and is not found on other cell types. The test provides an approximation of the donor’s sperm count.

The results can then be used to seek further medical advice, further diagnostic investigation and to implement or monitor appropriate treatment depending on the diagnosis.

1

Receive your test kit in the post.

2

Collect the semen into the collection cup provided, cap and shake the cup, then leave to liquefy for
1 hour.

3

Transfer 0.1 mL of the semen to the sample buffer using the semen transfer device.

4

Mix the semen into the sample buffer by inverting the tube 5–10 times.

5

Transfer 2 drops of the buffer solution to the sample area (S) on the test strip.

6

Wait 5 minutes for the results to appear.

NOTE: Do not interpret before 5 minutes or after10 minutes as the results
may be inaccurate.

The Male Fertility Test kit detects Acrosomal Protein SP-10 on sperm. Following the collection of semen into the collection cup provided the sample should be allowed to liquefy. Once liquefied, the sample (semen) is added to the test buffer using the semen transfer device. SP-10 protein in the sample binds to anti-SP-10 antibodies in the buffer. When the sample is added to the test cassette, it migrates through the test cassette by capillary action. The SP-10 complex binds to antibodies in the test strip, and a colour is produced depending on the concentration of SP-10 in the specimen.

A low sperm count is classified as the presence of fewer than 15 million sperm per 1mL of semen. A positive result on the Male Fertility Test indicates a sperm concentration of over 15 million/mL. A negative result indicates a sperm concentration of under 15 million/mL.

Infertility is usually defined as the inability of a couple to conceive after one year or more of unprotected, frequent sexual intercourse.  There are many different causes of infertility, both male and female. Approximately 20% of infertility cases are as a result of male infertility; male infertility also plays a contributing factor in another 30-40% of all infertility cases[2] .

In the male reproductive system, infertility is often caused by the absence or low levels of sperm, abnormal shape or movement of the sperm, or problems with the ejection of sperm. A low sperm count is classified as the presence of fewer than 15 million sperm per 1mL of semen. Having a low sperm count can make it more difficult to conceive naturally.

There are many causes of low sperm count, some reversible and some irreversible.

Low sperm count may be associated with, but not limited to, the following:

  • A hormone imbalance, such as reduced hormone production (hypogonadism)
  • A genetic problem such as Klinefelter syndrome
  • Previous surgery on the testicles or hernia repairs
  • A structural problem – for example the tubes that carry the sperm being damaged or blocked by illness of injury.

Issues with sperm count may exist alongside issues with sperm morphology or motility, and female fertility issues, the results of the Male Fertility Test do not constitute a medical diagnosis and should be used as a guide to seek further medical advice with respect to fertility as a whole.
