When a patient is examined, the doctor puts a preliminary conclusion and appoints a spermatogram for a qualitative and quantitative study of sperm. For 3-7 days before this research you need to refrain from alcohol, saunas, heavy physical exertion and sexual activity.
An important indicator of the spermatogram is the motility of spermatozoa. This affects the conception. Based on the motility of spermatozoa, they are divided into four groups :
- A - actively mobile;
- B - inactive spermatozoa with rectilinear movement;
- C - low-mobility with vibrational and rotational motion;
- D - fixed.
According to the andrologist, the norm is group A and A + B.In addition, the doctor can send to the ultrasound of genitals, and the analysis of the level of hormones. Treatment depends on the cause of infertility. If treatment is ineffective, artificial insemination is used.
