How The Y Factor Can Help
The Y Factor providers will perform a complete evaluation, which includes semen analysis, semen culture and imaging, combined with a physical exam to determine the cause of the potential problem. The providers will then form a specialized treatment plan to increase your natural fertility. The goal is to improve both your testosterone and the quality and number of sperm, which increases your chances of conceiving naturally through sex.
The Y Factor partners with various reproductive endocrinology clinics to increase the success rate of IVF and artificial insemination. The Y Factor performs specialized testing on the sperm to ensure optimum motility and quality of the sperm.

A semen analysis performed on an ejaculated semen sample provides the necessary information to determine fertility. This sample provides information on the number of sperm, swimming ability or motility, and whether they are the right shape to cause a pregnancy. You can order an at-home semen analysis kit from us here.
A varicocele is an abnormality that causes veins in the scrotal area to be large and dilated.The varicocele produces stress on the testicle resulting in decreased size and function. Removal of the varicoceles can significantly improve sperm production and increase the likelihood of natural concept and IVF/ICSI.
Various factors such as infection, pollution, radiation, smoking, alcohol, and recreational drug use can affect the sperm quality and DNA.
We look for correctable factors such as hormone levels, infections, and varicoceles. Our goal is to correct the underlying cause of infertility, by maximizing the overall production and quality of a man’s sperm to enable the couple to conceive naturally.
