Dear XXXXXXX,
Thank you for the query.
Before getting married, you need to be assessed for

1. Fertility Status and Hormonal Status
2. Sexual Orientation
3. Sexual Potency

For Fertility and Hormonal Status, you need to check
1. Semen Analysis
2. Serum Testosterone
3. Serum Thyroid profile

For Sexual Orientation
Whether you are attracted to female or male?

For Sexual Potency
Are you affected by erectile dysfunction / premature ejaculation?

I hope I gave you an overview of the things to be done before getting married related to sexuality.

Hope I have answered your query. Please accept my answer in case you do not have further queries.

Dear XXXXXXX,

Thanks for writing back.

Almost all labs do fertility and hormonal tests. I am not sure about the labs in chennai.

The average charges for these blood and serum tests vary from place to place.

You need to consult a doctor/sexologist to understand the sexual orientation and potency.

You can do a penile doppler for assessing the vascular status under your physician's guidance.

Hope I cleared your doubts. Please accept my answer in case you have no follow up queries.

Wish you good health.

Answered by Dr. A. CHAKRAVARTHY (20 hours later)

Dear XXXXXXX,

Penile doppler is a vascular doppler machine just like a echo machine which detects the flow of blood to the penis and from the penis back.

Hope it helps to clear your doubt. Please accept my answer in case you have no follow up queries.

Wish you good health.
