This test includes a complimentary call with our fertility expert, Dr Irfana Koita.
This test aims to help you determine if there are common infection-causing microorganisms present in your semen - a vital, yet often overlooked, first step before specific fertility treatments.
Whether you’re performing the test as a prerequisite for IVF / IUI or are doing it as part of your fertility assessment workup, we’re here to help you accurately determine if any pathogenic substances need to be treated first before spending your money on expensive fertility procedures.
You’ll conduct the sample collecting in the comfort and privacy of your own home. We’ll send a discrete kit to your preferred address and email the results within 7 working days.
Your results will be reviewed by our in-house fertility expert Dr Irfana Koita, who’ll discuss your results and explore possible treatment options if required.
Feel free to use our services or contact us, even if you’re undergoing treatment at another private or NHS Clinic.

Splitit enables you to pay with an existing VISA or MasterCard credit card by splitting the cost into interest and fee-free monthly payments, without additional registrations or applications. To be eligible, you must have the entire amount of your purchase available on your card. At the time of purchase, you will only be charged for the first payment. The remaining balance will be held on the credit card until the final payment is made.
Humm Humm lets you spread the total cost over 12 monthly payments. The first payment equal to 1/12 of the purchase price occurs once your order is completed. The remaining 11 payments are processed each month on the day of the original purchase. Selecting Humm at checkout will provide you an opportunity to register for an account.
How do I opt for this service?
Add your required product or service to the cart and proceed to checkout as normal. You can select either option as your payment method at checkout.
