Hewitt Fertility Clinic launches a NEW self- funded Semen Analysis service

Self-Funded Semen Analysis testing is now available at both Liverpool and Knutsford clinics. Patients do not require a GP referral for this service, but it is useful to know this package of care is available for signposting purposes.

Many factors can affect sperm quality and there are several reasons why people may wish to have a semen analysis, besides wanting to start a family.

Other reasons include:

  • Following the use of medication, treatment or illness
  • Following diagnosis of a varicocele
  • Following steroid use
  • Age related curiosity
  • A general interest in their sperm quality

This pathway may also be useful to those who:

  • Are seeking fertility treatment overseas
  • Are considering use of donor eggs from an external bank (some egg banks require this)
  • Require a semen analysis performed in an accredited laboratory.

The service costs £250 which includes the test and a follow up call with the andrology team to discuss the results.

Testing is by appointment only. Patients are required to contact the patient navigator team on 0151 702 4121 (option 5) to book and can read more here https://tinyurl.com/ e74s2e78
