Semen analysis - Dr Shefali Bansal
                     What Is Semen Analysis?
Semen analysis is also known a s sperm count test, which analyzes 
the viability, concentration, and health of a man’s sperm. The 
shape, number, and movement of the sperm present in the semen 
collection are the three major factors checked during this test. The 
success of the vasectomy process and the causes of male fertility 
can also be determined by it.
