April. The only at home sperm test I've seen has been the Pre-Conceive male fertility test. I've only seen it one time. I don't know how accurate it is, so I would definitely call your dr. and see if they can order one, or call a urologist.
Hi, I am just popping in to say that my DH used a home analysis kit several years ago. I am pretty sure we had purchased the PreConceive brand (but not 100 percent positive) and it did work for us. It showed that DH had lower than normal count and when he finally did go to a urologist to get tested he was very low indeed.
Just popping in...(saw the topic from the main board) DH and I used Fertell. It's a his and her's fertility test. The results from it were very accurate. It's pretty costly though, so like the other girls said....if you are concerned....may as well just get a SA done at the doctors. They are going to want it done again anyway.
I agree with Brandi, for something that important I wouldn't want to risk reading the test wrong.. I would much rather go to a urologist for that... and some insurances cover it.
I thought these at-home tests sounded cool, but the local fertility clinic said a sperm analysis there is around $100 (I'm assuming that's without insurance) and Fertell is that same amount of money, so hey, why not get the doctors to do it, you know?
Happy Valentines Day!!! Just wanted to add that we used an at home test and it was not very helpful because my dh has morphology issues so while the count was okay...the shape wasn't.
