ExSeed Home Sperm Test Kit

In order to test your semen, your doctor will ask you to provide a semen sample. Normally, you ejaculate into a collection cup in a room at your doctor’s office.   The sample is then assessed under a microscope, which will give useful information about the specific functions of your sperm cells  (i.e. the likelihood of a sample resulting in a pregnant partner).    Normal sperm tests track the volume (amount of semen), concentration (how many sperm cells you have per milliliter of semen, motility (the amount of moving sperm cells), and total motile sperm count (the total amount of moving sperm cells in one ejaculate). Some male fertility tests additionally assess features like morphology (the appearance of sperm cells), pH, color, the presence of other cell types and liquefaction time.

The ExSeed Home Sperm Test provides you with: Volume, concentration, motility and the total motile sperm count, which is similar to what many clinics assess. This is because the total motile sperm count is the one number that has been most highly associated with chance of pregnancy (1).

The most common diagnoses for a semen analysis include: Hypospermia: If there is a low volume Oligospermia: If there is a low amount of sperm cells Azoospermia: If there are no sperm at all Asthenozoospermia: If there is a large amount of sperm cells that does not move Tetrazoospermia: If there is a large amount of abnormal sperm cells. Leukospermia: If there is a large amount of round cells/white blood cells in the sample. Necrospermia: If there is a large amount of dead sperm cells.

•  A 2-test kit is perfect if you only want a snapshot of your sperm health. We follow the WHO guidelines and recommend a minimum of two tests to prevent any irregularity in the results.
• A 5-test kit will not only allow you to see your current sperm health, but it will be able to show the improvements as you implement the recommended changes from our app over a few months. The 5 test kits are cheaper per test than the 2-test kit and come with a free fertility cookbook.
• A 10-test kit will allow you to track your sperm health changes over a year period. It also works out cheapest per test and comes with a free fertility cookbook & a free fertility guide.

ExSeed is currently the only at-home sperm test assessing the total motile sperm count. This count is important because some other at-home sperm tests will fail to inform about common causes of male infertility. Our system is built to be easily shared with us or your doctor, making it possible to get a second opinion on your result. The ExSeed Home Sperm test uses microscopy which is what is also used in the clinic as the golden standard. This also means that you will get a nice recording of your swimmers. Our customer support is available to help you if you should experience any issues while testing or if you were in doubt if it was performed correctly.

In the context of sperm testing, our high percentages of these 3 measurements mean that ExSeed’s algorithmic analysis produces results that are extremely close to your true Total Motile Sperm Count, correctly identifying anyone with normal or below normal scores as per the WHO’s reference values with a high degree of certainty. Additionally, ExSeed’s medical team review all test samples, as in standard practice in clinics and labs.

In relative terms, ExSeed’s level of Sensitivity (95.24%) & Specificity (94.90%) are comparable to home pregnancy tests. They perform better than sperm tests which require samples to be sent away to the lab because studies have shown that semen quality can degrade during shipment. (1)

Most home sperm tests are very simple tests that are easy to use. In difficulty they are similar to a pregnancy test. This is also the case for our home sperm test which is easy to use and interpret. If you are in doubt about your result or how to test, we are always here to help. See our instruction video to see how easy it really is:

The ExSeed Home Sperm test tracks the same parameters that you would get in most clinics. These includes; volume (amount of semen), concentration (how many sperm cells you have per milliliter of semen, motility (the amount of moving sperm cells), and total motile sperm count (the total amount of moving sperm cells in one ejaculate). This is because the total motile sperm count is the one number that has been most highly associated with chance of pregnancy

Sperm quality varies naturally, which means that you may have a test that is not ideal on one day, but still have a normal sperm quality.Several factors affect sperm qualityincluding sickness. We therefore recommend you to test your semen quality twice. This should be more than one week apart and it would be good to test it again one month after. This is also what is recommended by the sperm testing guidelines of the WHO.

ExSeed’s Home Test has not been certified to assess whether there are no sperm cells present or the effectiveness of various methods of contraception, both temporary and permanent (like vasectomy). Therefore, we would not be able to provide a conclusive answer based on our home test. That being said, a relatively large number of people have used ExSeed to give an indication on whether there are live sperm cells present post-operation or in other circumstances.

In the app, there is a button you can click on to indicate you’ve had a vasectomy, which will make the Medical Team do an extra careful manual assessment (visual inspection) of the test as well.
