Semen analysis

Description of the service

The sperm laboratory examines semen volume, sperm density, total sperm count, sperm motility and possible antisperm antibodies. If necessary, further semen testing can also be carried out in the laboratory. After sterilisation, the semen is examined to verify the absence of motile sperm.

Semen sample collection is performed at our fertility treatment laboratory in Tampere only by appointment. Appointment booking by telephone on weekdays Mon–Fri between 8 and 15 at 010 808 525.
