With the advancement of health science, somebody can easily confirm their health status at home like HIV/AIDS, malaria, fertility among others by simply using home-based test kits.
Just like women, men can as well test their fertility at home without involving other parties.
Fertility in men is influenced by so many factors. For instance, it is determined by the presence of an antigen known as SP-10, which is found on the head of sperm cells and sperm count. These are what it takes to be fertile.
Whereas men with more than 20 million sperm per millilitre are fertile, those of us with sperm counts between 2 million and 20 million are considered to be infertile.
At times, your sperm count might be less than 2 million. In this case, you are also considered as infertile.
In the case of At-home Fertility Tests for men, the test kits strips are designed in such a way they can detect the amount of an antigen known as SP-10 or protein. These antigens are found at the tip of a sperm cell.
Using this kit is as easy as pie and they have the same principles as those of pregnancy test kits.
Like a pregnancy test, the SCF uses coloured lines to indicate if there is normal or low sperm count.
Get some semen when making love and place it in the solution bottle provided. Then mix them thoroughly after which you will be required to add four drops of the solution on the device. You will then have to wait for at least 10 minutes to interpret the result.
All the explanations on how to interpret the result are provided in the kit box.
A good example of the kit is spermCheck ® Fertility tool. The kit is available in most of your nearest outlets.
