Shared Responsibility for Both Partners

Preparing for Pregnancy

  • Fertility issues are not just a woman’s responsibility. They are a shared responsibility for both partners.
  • Around 40% of fertility issues in couples are related to male factors. Men’s s perm health plays an essential role in the journey to conception.
  • That's why it's important for both partners to be proactive in understanding and supporting each other’s fertility.

What is SP10 Protein?

  • SP10 Protein in S perm – Found on the s perm's acrosome, this protein is an essential enzyme involved in the fertilization process.
  • When s perm swim – It promotes the release of kinins in the reproductive tract, enhancing s perm vitality and motility.
  • When encountering the egg – It helps the s perm penetrate the cumulus oophorus and zona pellucida, facilitating the fusion of s perm and egg.

Research Shows:

  • The concentration of SP10 protein is linearly correlated with s perm concentration.
  • SP10 protein testing can be used as an indicator for s perm concentration.
  • When s perm concentration exceeds 15 million/ml, it indicates that s perm count is within normal range, meaning you can proceed with confidence in your fertility journey. (Data Source: WHO)

Test Procedure

  • Before collecting your semen sample, wait at least 48 hours, but no more than seven (7) days after your last e jaculation.
  • Use manual stimulation (masturbation) to obtain your semen sample.
  • Do not use any lubricants or lotions.
  • Do not use a condom to collect the sample as this may interfere with the test result.

Above 15 million s perm per milliliter (15×10⁶/ml) of semen is the accepted standard for normal s perm count from WHO.

Test Results:

✓ POSITIVE – Indicates s perm concentration >15 million/ml, meaning normal semen count.

  • You can proceed with confidence during the conception process.

✘ NEGATIVE – Indicates s perm concentration <15 million/ml, suggesting possible oligos permia (low s perm count).

  • For negative results, it's recommended to retest after more than 7 days but no longer than 21 days. If the result is still negative, consulting a doctor for further evaluation is advised.

  • Why should I abstain from e jaculation for 2-7 days before the test?

    S perm production takes time. E jaculation too soon may result in immature s perm, while too long an abstinence period can cause s perm aging. To get accurate results, abstinence should be between 2 to 7 days.

  • Can I use semen from intercourse or from a condom?

    No, it’s important to collect the semen sample using manual stimulation or other methods. Do not use semen from intercourse or a condom, as lubricants in condoms can interfere with the results.

  • When is the best time to perform the test?

    You can take the test at any time of the day, as long as you’ve abstained from e jaculation for 2-7 days beforehand.

  • Can pregnancy occur without liquefaction of semen?

    No, if the semen hasn't liquefied, it remains in a gel form and can't move properly. This blocks s perm from reaching the fallopian tubes and meeting the egg. This could be the reason many women with normal ovulation fail to conceive.

  • What does it mean when I have a negative test result?

    A negative result indicates that your s perm count is below 15 million/ml and indicates infertility. But this result alone cannot prove that you are infertile. S perm count can vary daily. So retesting on another day may yield a different result.
