SPERM MOTILITY<\/strong> :<\/strong><\/h3>\n

1. PARAMETERS<\/strong>
\nThere are 3 major parameters to determine a man\u2019s fertility.
\nThey are:
\na. Sperm Count.
\nb. Sperm Motility.
\nc. Sperm Morphology.<\/p>\n

2. WHAT IS SPERM MOTILITY?<\/strong>
\nSperm Motility is the ability of the sperm to move. For the conception to occur, the sperm needs to swim forward towards the egg and fertilize it before it disintegrates. According to WHO\u2019s latest criteria, at least 40% of the total sperm must be moving (motile).<\/p>\n

\"sperm<\/p>\n

3. WHAT IS CALLED LOW SPERM MOTILITY?<\/strong>
\nLow sperm motility is technically known as asthenospermia, where the sperms find it difficult to move towards the egg due to its limited mobility.<\/p>\n

4. WHY IS SPERM MOTILITY A VERY IMPORTANT PARAMETER?<\/strong>
\nThe male semen can contain millions of sperms in concentration or count. But if they are incapable of showing any movement, then the chances of conception is too low to happen naturally. Sperms are considered productive only when they are motile and in good shape. Thus motility is a very major factor for normal conception to take place.<\/p>\n

5. WHAT AFFECTS SPERM MOTILITY?<\/strong>
\nThe most important factors that affect sperm motility are as follows.
\na. Stress
\nb. Some health conditions
\nc. Increased scrotal Temperature
\nd. Lifestyle choices (Alcohol and smoking)<\/p>\n

6. HOW LOW SPERM MOTILITY AFFECTS PREGNANCY?<\/strong>
\nIf a man has low sperm motility, then he might be diagnosed with the male factor infertility, because after ovulation, an egg stays in the fallopian tube for about 12 to 24 hours waiting for the sperm to fertilize it. If the sperms have low motility, the sperms will not be able to swim up to the fallopian tubes in time to fertilize the eggs. Thereby, affecting the pregnancy.<\/p>\n

7. WHY IS MAINTAINING AND CHECKING THE SPERM MOTILITY IMPORTANT?<\/strong>
\nAs mentioned before, sperm motility is one of the major and also a primary factor in male infertility diagnosis. Thus, keeping a check on the sperm motility increases the chances of conception and rules out the factor for male infertility.<\/p>\n

8. HOW DOES YO DIFFER FROM OTHER SPERM CHECK KITS?<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u2022 YO is the unique and only device that gives the combined result of two parameters important in sperm analysis. i.e., Sperm Count and Sperm Motility. This is called the Motile Sperm concentration.
\n\u2022 Also, YO enables the users to have a view of their moving sperms with naked eyes through their smartphones in the form of a video.
\n\u2022 YO is a US\/FDA Approved product hence giving the accuracy of >97%.
\n\u2022 The user does not have to have any scientific or technical knowledge. The usage and procedures involved are very simple and explained very clearly in the application.<\/p>\n
