The sperm preparation is a test done on the sperm to determine the number of progressive spermatozoa that can be isolated from an ejaculate specimen and used in assisted conception techniques.

The aim of washing and preparing the sperm is to separate the sperm from the seminal fluid and low motile sperm to obtain only the good motile sperm.

This test allows to evaluate the number of motile sperm collected and decide the most appropriate treatment, taking into consideration whether there is tubal blockage or not. If the total number of progressive sperm is above 3 million the sample will be suitable for artificial insemination. If it is below 3 million IVF will be the most appropiate treatment.
