Instructions for bringing the semen analysis from home

For bringing the semen analysis from home, follow the exact instructions. At least 2–4 days, but not more than 7 days, must have elapsed since the last ejaculation.
Please follow the instructions listed below:

• First, agree on a time when the semen analysis can be brought from home. Contact info@ivfnordic.com or phone +372 607 0017
• At least 2–4 days, but not more than 7 days, must have elapsed since the last ejaculation.
• For the analysis it is necessary to buy a special sterile container from the pharmacy, e.g. a urine cup (analysis brought in a wrong container, e.g. a jar, is not accepted!)
• Do not use a condom to collect the analysis sample, as the substances in the condom reduce sperm motility (the sample in a condom will not be accepted)
• Mark the container: name, surname, personal identification code, the time of analysis (if possible)
• Empty the bladder and wash your hands before giving the sample. Pull the foreskin back and wash the penis with cool water (do not use soap), dry the penis.
The sample must reach the clinic within 30 minutes after it was given. If this is not possible, a time must be agreed when you can come to the clinic for an on-site analysis
• When transporting the analysis, the container must be kept warm, e.g. in the chest pocket or elsewhere near the body.
