Care of men

We welcome men to our andrology clinic to investigate the causes of male infertility and to offer treatment.

The basic assessment involves giving a blood sample to test for hepatitis B, hepatitis C, HIV and syphilis. Then, after abstinence for two to four days, a sperm assessment, called semen analysis, is performed.

The semen analysis investigates several parameters: the volume, concentration, mobility and morphology of the spermatozoids, or the presence of anti-spermatozoid antibodies. These are used to determine whether the semen analysis is normal or if it shows alterations requiring more detailed investigations, such as hormone assays, a urological examination or a genetic assessment.
