Before you book

What a semen analysis can't see

A semen analysis counts your sperm and checks how they move and look. It doesn't look at the DNA inside them, which carries half of your baby's genes.

What the WHO semen manual says

WHO laboratory manual for the examination and processing of human semen, 6th edition (2021)

  1. A semen report alone can't predict fertility

    “For an individual patient, a semen analysis is never prognostic of fertility…”

    WHO manual, section 1.2

  2. DNA testing adds what a semen report misses

    “Since [sperm DNA fragmentation] is only partially related to semen quality, it could represent an important addition in the work-up of male infertility…”

    WHO manual, section 3.2

  3. DNA damage can affect the embryo and the pregnancy

    “…multiple meta-analyses published in recent years indicate that [sperm DNA fragmentation] may affect embryo development, implantation, and pregnancies in both natural and assisted reproduction.”

    WHO manual, section 3.2

Our DNA fragmentation test uses the sperm chromatin dispersion (SCD) method, one of the four methods the manual describes.

WHO lower limits are the fifth centile of men whose partners conceived within a year. The manual notes this “does not represent a limit between fertile and infertile men”.

Why DNA fragmentation matters

Why Normal Results Aren't Always the Full Story

A routine semen analysis checks count and movement. It can't see damage inside the sperm's DNA, which can affect how the embryo develops, implantation and pregnancy.

High DNA damage is linked to:

  • Failed IUI / IVF cycles
  • Repeated miscarriages
  • Unexplained infertility

Intact DNACapable of successful fertilisation

Fragmented DNAHigher risk of failure

Did you know?

  • Male factors play a role in about half of couples' fertility problems
  • Infertility is often assumed to be a woman's issue, so men are tested late
  • Lifestyle factors like smoking, stress, heat and obesity can damage sperm DNA

Why it matters

  • A "normal" semen report can still hide DNA damage
  • Knowing early saves time, money and emotional stress
  • DNA damage can often improve with treatment and lifestyle changes

European Association of Urology

Guidelines on Sexual and Reproductive Health, 2026

Strong recommendation

“Perform sperm DNA fragmentation (SDF) testing in the assessment of couples with recurrent pregnancy loss from natural conception and failure of ART or males with unexplained infertility.”

ART is assisted reproduction, such as IUI and IVF. Source(opens in a new tab)

American Urological Association & ASRM

Diagnosis and Treatment of Infertility in Men, 2020 (amended 2024)

“Even with a ‘normal’ [semen analysis], a sperm that appears morphologically and functionally normal may … have a high level of DNA fragmentation.”

It advises testing the male partner for DNA fragmentation after recurrent pregnancy loss. Source(opens in a new tab)
