What is a semen analysis?

A semen analysis is a test performed to screen for male fertility problems and veterinary sperm reproductive status. In order to perform a semen analysis, a man must collect s semen specimen into a sterile cup. This is usually done by masturbation though in some cases, using a special condom, a semen specimen can be obtained during intercourse. For many years, evaluation of the semen has been performed by a laboratory technician looking through a microscope and manually counting sperm.
