About the test

The job of the man during conception is essentially to produce healthy sperm that can fertilise your partner`s egg. There are a wide range of factors including medical conditions, lifestyle choices like smoking and drinking alcohol, and nutritional factors that can affect the quality of your sperm.

In this panel we look at all of the biomarkers that are important for healthy sperm production and help you find any problems that are affecting your reproductive success.

And with our free Health Dashboard tool online, you can track your biomarkers over time and compare your results with previous ones. This feature provides a clear understanding of how your health is progressing and helps you make better-informed decisions about your well-being and any improvement on the fertility biomarkers.

Doctor's notes

Hi, I am Dr. Adam Staten and here's my view on this test as a GP and Clinical Director at One Day Tests.

Testosterone is produced in the testes in men and is traditionally considered to be the "male" sex hormone. Testosterone is necessary to maintain mood, muscle mass, energy levels, libido and sexual function. It is also important for fertility in men. 

Lacking testosterone can lead to vague but pervasive symptoms, such as low mood and fatigue. More marked symptoms can include loss of muscle mass, loss of body hair, erectile dysfunction, changes in sleep, and the development of breast tissue in men.

Although testosterone levels do decline gradually with age, sharp declines in testosterone levels can occur due to a number of medical conditions and you may be at higher risk of this happening if you have had previous illness or injuries that have affected the testes.

Red flag symptoms for the Ultimate Male Fertility Blood Test

Even if your blood tests are normal, you should see a doctor if you have any of the symptoms below because they may be a sign of serious underlying illness. 

  • Unexplained weight loss.
  • Drenching sweats during the night.
  • Persistent fevers.
  • Progressively severe symptoms of any kind.

Special instructions

Hi, I am Stefania Brown, I am the Laboratory Manager at One Day Tests and here are the lab's special requests for the Ultimate Male Fertility Blood Test.

This test should be taken as close to 9am as possible.

You should wait till any symptoms of short term illness have settled before you take this test.

Venepuncture appointment - how to prepare

If you are coming into one of our clinics for the test, this is what you need to do before you arrive:

  • Drink plenty of water about an hour before the appointment.
  • Avoid coffee/tea/energy drinks. Water is good!
  • That’s it! We’ll do the rest.

Home test kit for Ultimate Male Fertility Blood Test - how it works

Our blood test kits are simple and convenient.

The most important step in doing a blood test at home is to read the instructions very carefully. The process is very simple, but there are a few pitfalls you need to be aware of - you will save yourself a lot of time if you do it right the first time around!

  • Full printed instructions will arrive with your kit - please read them carefully.
  • Drink plenty before taking the sample and warm your hands up in the sink with warm water for a few minutes. This will make your blood flow much better.
  • Fill the tubes to the top line. We don’t need much blood; filling tubes to the top line is about 15 drops of blood.
  • Post the samples on the same day you take them, before midday, Monday to Thursday. If you post it any other time it might get to us late or be stuck at a sorting office over the weekend. You will then have to do it again.
  • Package the sample in the same box the kit came in. Otherwise, Royal Mail or DPD will reject it. The sample tubes go into a pouch, then into a cardboard box, and then into a return envelope. All of this is provided in the kit: please use it.

We look forward to receiving your sample in our lab!

Frequently Asked Questions

Hi, I am Lana Nela, Lead Nurse, and here is what we are frequently asked about this test.

Why do you test the liver function?

Chronic liver disease is associated with reduced fertility as it can alter hormone levels which can cause the development of breast tissue in men, reduced size of the testes and reduced sperm production.

Is Vitamin B12 important for healthy sperm?

Vitamin B12 is very important for making blood and for the health of your nervous system. Vitamin B12 deficiency is linked to reduced number and quality of sperm. 

What has Iron got to do with this?

Low iron levels have been shown to affect sperm production therefore iron deficiency may lead to problems conceiving.

Why take this test?

Hi, I am Dr. Marco Esposito and here is why it's important to take this test.
  • To see if there is anything amiss that may be preventing you and your partner conceiving.
  • If you have a family history of difficult conceptions and would like to check that all is well.
  • To monitor your vital biomarkers (this panel is huge!) over time.
