    1. My doctor has told me to get a sperm analysis done. Can I do this at this center?

      • Hi David,

        According to the information on their website they do fertility testing and sperm analysis, to study thevolume, count, motiliy and morphology of your sperm. You will need to maintain a period of abstinence of 2 -3 days before you provide the sample and it should arrive be at the lab in less than 1 hour after production.

        If you want to learn more about what is looked at in a sperm analysis you can find more information in this article: Sperm test results explained.

        I hope this information has been of use. Best wishes
