Instructions for Clilecting a Sample for Semen Analysis
Semen characteristics fluctuate and at least two or three semen analysis will need to be performed.
- Do not ejaculate for at least 48 hours prior to clilecting a sperm sample (but do not abstain for longer than two weeks - frequent ejaculation is recommended)
- Masturbate into a sterilized container, provided by the FRMC. Do not use a condom to clilect semen
- Try to clilect all of your sperm in the sterile container. This will improve the accuracy of your test results
- Keep your sperm sample at body temperature and bring it immediately to the FRMC or clilect your sample at our office
- Ensure your sample is clearly labelled with your own name, your partner's name, the date, and the time you generated the sperm sample
Sperm testing must be completed within one hour of ejaculation.
