About the Test
As one in seven couples struggle with infertility, it is important to remember that the man is a contributing factor approximately 50% of the time.1 Quest® offers the YO™ Male Fertility At-Home Test Kit, a smartphone based home test which provides a qualitative assessment of motile sperm concentration (MSC) in human semen. MSC is one aspect of a male semen examination. This test does not provide a comprehensive evaluation of a male’s fertility status and is intended for over-the-counter, in vitro use only.
Whether or not you and your partner are currently planning or trying for a family, understanding your sperm motility is an indicator of your overall health and wellness. This test allows you to learn more about your sperm quickly and easily in the comfort of your own home.
Note: This is an at-home test from Medical Electronic Systems. Quest Diagnostics does not provide laboratory testing services for this item. Your test results will not be shared with or available from Quest, and PWNHealth services and fees do not apply to this offering.

FAQs
Motile sperm concentration is the number of moving sperm cells in 1 milliliter of your semen. Sperm cells need to move forward to reach the egg during natural conception, making it one of the most important factors when assessing sperm quality.
Your sperm results can change over time. A "LOW" result today could be "NORMAL" in a month or two. If you receive a "LOW" YO result of MSC < 6M/ml OR if your YO SCORE is < 40 on your first test, you should consider re-running your test. If you have had a fever, spent a week in the hot tub, or if you are making positive lifestyle changes and just want to monitor your YO SCORE to see the improvements, wait two or three weeks and run another test. Remember, it only takes ONE sperm to fertilize an egg, so you may be fertile even with a LOW result.
