To determine whether the site of semen collection affects semen parameters by comparing semen samples collected at home with those collected in the office.
Prospective cohort study.
An academic research environment.
PATIENT(S): Men collecting semen samples both at home and in the office, either for a workup for infertility or for use in intrauterine insemination.
INTERVENTION(S): Semen analysis performed on all specimens, evaluating sperm count, sperm motility, total count, and total motile count.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S): Semen analysis parameters.
RESULT(S): There was no statistically significant difference in sperm count, sperm motility, total count, or total motile count between those samples collected at home vs. those collected in the office in either group of patients.
CONCLUSION(S): The site of semen collection, whether at home vs. in the office, does not have a clinically significant effect on semen analysis parameters.
通过比较在家中采集的精液样本与在办公室采集的精液样本，确定精液采集地点是否会影响精液参数。
前瞻性队列研究。
学术研究环境。
在家中和办公室采集精液样本的男性，采集目的为不育症检查或用于宫内人工授精。
对所有样本进行精液分析，评估精子数量、精子活力、总数和总活动数。
精液分析参数。
两组患者中，在家中采集的样本与在办公室采集的样本在精子数量、精子活力、总数或总活动数方面均无统计学上的显著差异。
精液采集地点，无论是在家中还是在办公室，对精液分析参数均无临床显著影响。
