Male fertility testing at Gynatal Clinic (Timișoara, Romania) offers comprehensive diagnostics including standard spermograms, spermocultures, and advanced Halosperm DNA fragmentation tests. Our urological specialists identify pre-testicular, testicular, and post-testicular factors to create personalized treatment plans, including ICSI, IMSI, or surgical TESE/PESA for complex cases. 

Why Male Fertility Evaluation is Essential

Male factors contribute to approximately 50% of all infertility cases. At Gynatal, we believe that understanding male fertility is not just about conception—it is a vital indicator of a man’s general health, hormonal balance, and even longevity. 

When to Consider Testing? 

Medical guidelines suggest an evaluation if: 

  • You and your partner have been trying to conceive for 12 months (or 6 months if the female partner is over 35). 

  • There is a history of infections, varicocele, or testicular trauma. 

  • You are exposed to high-risk environments (heat, toxins, or radiation). 

  • You wish to preserve fertility via Social Freezing before medical treatments or vasectomy.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Are male fertility tests painful?

Most tests, like blood work and spermograms, are painless. Minor surgical procedures like TESE are performed under anesthesia or sedation for total comfort. 

Yes. Sperm production takes approximately 74–90 days. Changes such as quitting smoking, reducing alcohol, and a balanced diet can significantly improve sperm quality within 3 months. 

Basic spermograms are typically available within a few days, while genetic testing or biopsies may take longer.
