Hi,I am Dr. Alexander H. Sheppe (Psychiatrist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi, Doctor asked me to get the Semen Analysis done. But when I try to collect the Semen sample by masturbation, I am not able to get it. But otherwise there is no issue at all. When I asked the Lab technician that I get the Sample by foreplay, he is saying I can't do that. I have to collect the sample at the lab only. Can you help me out to come out of this problem ?
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
If you are having proper lab container to collect semen and transport time less then 30 minutes you can use that sample. Otherwise it could give wrong results. If you want to collect it at home try to maintain proper cold chain while transport.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Awadhesh P Singh Solanki
