What is Fructose, Semen?

The Fructose, Semen test measures the level of fructose in a semen sample. Fructose is a sugar produced by the seminal vesicles that provides energy for sperm motility. This test helps evaluate the function of these glands and the quality of the semen.

Why is this test important?

This test is clinically important in the investigation of male infertility. Low or absent fructose levels can indicate issues with the seminal vesicles, blockages in the reproductive tract, or other conditions affecting sperm health and viability, which can impact fertility.

How to Prepare

You will need to abstain from ejaculation for 2-5 days prior to collecting the semen sample. Follow specific instructions provided for sample collection to ensure accuracy.
