Understand Your Sperm Health
We've partnered with Legacy to help you and your partner understand more about sperm health. Legacy's testing kit analyzes all key sperm metrics to give you a clear picture of your overall fertility — all from the comfort of your own home. Legacy also offers the option to try supplements that promote fertility health, or to add sperm freezing so you can preserve a healthy sample for future use.
What Legacy Offers
You should test your sperm if:
You’re trying or planning to have a baby.
If you and your partner are trying to conceive or planning to get pregnant, sperm testing is a great first step to rule out male fertility issues. Testing sperm early can help you avoid costly and unnecessary tests or treatments down the line, and can help you get more quickly to your goal of starting a family.
You want to improve your fertility.
Sperm takes about 72 days to produce. We recommend starting with a baseline semen analysis, and then testing every 3 months to see if your healthier lifestyle, surgery, or medication is helping to improve your fertility.
You might want to freeze your sperm.
If you’re freezing your sperm for the future, start with a semen analysis to ensure your sperm is healthy and fertile before freezing. One semen sample will be split into 4 vials. These vials can be sent to multiple labs for risk-free storage.
You’re planning an IUI or IVF cycle.
If you’re planning fertility treatment, we recommend doing an Advanced Semen Analysis with a DNA fragmentation test from Legacy. Sperm DNA fragmentation is correlated with fertility treatment success.
You’ve had a vasectomy or vasectomy reversal.
If you have a vasectomy for long-term birth control, you should get a semen analysis around 12 weeks after the procedure, to confirm there’s no sperm left in your semen. If you have surgery to reverse a previous vasectomy, we recommend getting a semen analysis every month for 12 months to ensure your sperm quality, count, and motility is recovering.
