A member asked:

How acurate are the home fertility kits for males, with the blue dye and color chart?my partner did one and came negative, we are worried,what to do?

Dr. Lori Semel answered

Specializes in Pediatrics

Male fertility kits: The kit only tells if the sperm count is 20 million or more. If the result is negative, a complete infertility work up should be done.
