If you'd like a change one's mind understanding of what it takes for sperm to be considered luxuriant, go grab your measuring spoons and look at the leniency teaspoon. Roughly that amount of ejaculate should boast anywhere between 20 million and 150 million sperm . Anything less than 20 million and fertility reasonable might be an issue.
So Loes Segerink , a researcher at the University of Twente in the Netherlands, has developed a "fertility chip" that can accurately quantify one's sperm concentration as well as measure its mobility (when discussing sperm the synonym "motility" is often utilized). What's more, the test can be taken at home, with the ejaculate being, ahem, calm in a more private environment.
While simple home tests are already commercially ready, the concentration readings are, well, simple, and indicate only whether sperm concentration is above or below that 20 million appraise a write down. But one man's sperm concentration of 19 million is certainly more generative than another man's count of 1 million.
