Male Fertility Blood Test & Testes Scan Package

From £225.00 (blood test only)

This test or package is designed for men who want to understand and assess their fertility health, whether you’re planning a pregnancy, experiencing difficulties conceiving, or simply want reassurance.

The blood tests measure key hormones involved in sperm production and reproductive health, helping to identify potential hormonal imbalances that may affect fertility. The testes ultrasound scan complements this by providing a visual assessment of the testes, allowing structural or physical factors to be identified alongside the hormonal results. Together, this combined approach offers a clear and well-rounded overview of male fertility, helping to guide next steps and support informed decisions.

This bloods panel includes the following tests:

This test checks for the presence of the HIV virus.

This blood test is used to screen for a current syphilis infection. It detects antibodies that your body produces when fighting a syphilis infection.

This blood test checks for the presence of the hepatitis B antigen, a protein of the virus. A positive result for the antigens means you are currently infected with hepatitis B and are infectious.

This test checks for the presence of antibodies in your blood, which indicate a past hepatitis B infection. Hepatitis B can cause serious liver damage, and is transmitted through unprotected sex, sharing needles or from any situation where you come into contact with bodily fluids from an infected person. Mothers can also pass it to their babies. The presence of this antibody does not guarantee immunity from hepatitis B.

Testing for hepatitis C antibodies in your blood can tell you whether you’ve previously been infected with hepatitis C, but can’t tell you if the infection is still active in your system. If you receive a positive result for antibodies, you should then have a blood test to determine if the infection is current. Hepatitis C can seriously damage the liver, and is transmitted through unprotected sex, sharing needles or from a mother to a baby.

Rubella testing is a simple blood test performed to identify whether you have developed antibodies after and infection or vaccination in order to protect you and a baby against rubella.  A positive rubella test indicates that you have the antibodies and therefore do not require a vaccination.  If the antibodies are not detected, then you will need to have the MMR vaccination prior to fertility treatment.

This test checks for the presence of chlamydia, which will need to be treated before starting fertility treatment. Please note that this is a urine test and you will be required to provide a urine sample at your appointment.

Frequently Asked Questions

No, we will send you the results and recommend that you share these with your GP or fertility provider.

It is not unusual for some bleeding to occur under the skin following your blood test and sometimes this can extend a little further around the puncture site.  If this causes you concern, check with your practice nurse. 

Sometimes we cannot get a blood sample from you. This can be for many reasons, such as not being hydrated enough, feeling cold or having another blood test recently. We will always offer you another appointment so we can try again.
