Before your appointment

Obtain the laboratory’s abstinence, collection and transport instructions. Report recent illness or medicines that may affect interpretation.

Time, hospital stay & appointments

Times are planning guides, not national averages or guaranteed schedules. They reflect published provider examples and patient guidance. The treating team confirms the individual plan, time needed near the clinic and fitness to travel. Waiting lists are not included.

Procedure or course duration
Collection and laboratory reporting are separate; repeat testing may be needed.
Hospital stay
Usually outpatient, without an overnight stay for the test itself. Preparation or additional tests may extend attendance.
Visits and repeat attendance
Plan one attendance for the test and a results discussion. The referral assessment and any repeat or additional tests may require separate visits; ask whether results can be discussed remotely.
Recovery and travel planning
An isolated result does not define fertility by itself. The clinician may repeat testing and combine findings with both partners’ assessment.
