He came into the lab looking worried.
“Ma, I’ve done everything… but my wife still can’t conceive,” he said quietly.
I smiled and asked, “Have you done a Semen Analysis M/C/S?”
He frowned a little. “What’s that one again?”
I told him, “It’s one of the simplest but most powerful tests for men. It checks not just the s***m, but the reproductive health.”
M/C/S simply means:
• M – Microscopy: We check the s***m count, movement, and shape.
• C – Culture: We look for hidden infections that affect fertility.
• S – Sensitivity: We find out which antibiotics can kill any bacteria found.
I explained that some infections don’t show symptoms but can silently block or damage s***m.
We ran his test later.
His s***m count was okay, but the culture grew Staphylococcus aureus.
A silent infection.
After proper antibiotics and follow-up, he came back months later with the biggest smile.
“Ma, my wife is pregnant!” he said.
That’s when it hit me again, that a simple test can save a marriage, restore confidence, and bring joy to a home.
Men, here’s what you need to know:
• Semen Analysis M/C/S detects infertility early.
• It exposes hidden infections that affect s***m.
• It guides the right treatment.
• It helps you take control of your fertility.
Before doing the test:
• Abstain from s*x for 3–5 days.
• Avoid alcohol, smoking, and heat exposure.
• Collect sample by ma********on only, no condoms or lubricants.
• Deliver to the lab within 30–60 minutes, keep it warm.
If infection is found, antibiotics are given based on sensitivity results.
If s***m is low or slow, lifestyle adjustments or specialist care follows.
Here’s my advice as a scientist:
Don’t ignore the semen. Don’t assume all is well.
The semen holds answers, answers that can protect your future, your fertility, and your family.
