Semen parameter variability among users of at-home sperm testing kits.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Despite the generally accepted World Health Organization guidelines on semen analysis, an individual's results can display significant variation when performed across time or in different laboratories. Semen parameters are in fact highly variable measures that can differ significantly between various analyses. Numerous researchers have discovered a wide range of semen parameters within each individual male, but only a few studies included the analysis of semen parameters variability in patients with infertility. The aim of this study was to evaluate the inter- and intra-individual variability of semen parameters in men of reproductive age with normozoospermia and those with oligozoospermia.

Methods

Five hundred and thirteen who provided ≥ 2 semen samples (798 samp
