Scrotal ultrasound is an imaging test that looks at the scrotum. It is the flesh-covered sac that hangs between the legs at the base of the penis and contains the testicles.

As a part of a standard infertility workup, sperm parameters should be tested with a semen analysis. Sperm analysis should be done after 3 – 4 days of abstinence and not more than 5 days.

The sperm is necessary to carry DNA from the male to the female egg, allow fusion of the sperm with the egg and even provide the raw materials needed for the embryo to grow.

Infertility affects men and women. A testicular biopsy is an important tool in diagnosing male infertility. Due to the high incidence of male factor infertility, it is important to receive early diagnosis.
