Sperm Test
At-Home Testing for Him
The male side can account for up to 30% of fertility issues. With the FDA cleared Proov + Yo Sperm Test, you can check on his swimmers and get pregnant faster. Unlike other sperm tests that only measure sperm count, the Proov + Yo test measures his motile sperm, to ensure his swimmers can get to where they need to go – your egg! Each test kit comes with 2 at-home sperm tests and the free Yo app.
Not for post vasectomy testing.
- YO Wifi device

- 2 YO slides, pipets, and liquefaction vials
- Instructions for use
He can test whenever he’s ready! However, it’s best not to have intercourse or ejaculate 2-5 days before testing so we recommend targeting testing accordingly.
- The Proov + YO Sperm test looks at Motile Sperm Concentration (or MSC for short).
- MSC is a measurement of the number of moving sperm per mL of semen. Since more motile sperm mean a higher chance of reaching an egg, this is the best screening tool for sperm.
- You’ll receive a YO score and a video of your sample, which can be shared with a doctor if you choose. A low result (MSC < 6M/ml or a YO score of < 40) indicates a lower than average motile sperm concentration
- Remember, it only takes 1 sperm to fertilize an egg, so it’s still possible to get pregnant even with a low score.
- If you have a low score, the YO app will provide fertility improvement tools, otherwise we always recommend talking to your doctor about possible treatment.
Note: Not for post vasectomy testing.
- Couples who want to ensure sperm are present and active
- Couples who have been trying for a few months without success
The Proov Male Fertility Test measures Motile Sperm Concentration (how many sperm are actually moving) and sperm quality. The YO app then compares your partner’s results to laboratory standards and to other men who have fathered children.
MSC is the number of moving sperm in 1 milliliter of your partner’s sample. The Proov Male Fertility test is an important test because it checks for moving sperm — a critical characteristic since sperm needs to be able to swim to the egg!
Since sperm must be able to swim to the egg for conception to occur, knowing your partner’s concentration of moving sperm is an important piece of the fertility puzzle. The Proov Male Fertility Test also provides a MSC ranking and a personal reference video, which can be shared with your doctor if needed.
