You’ve been trying for a few months now. Your period is regular. You’ve been eating right, sleeping well, tracking your cycle. Still, nothing’s happened.
And now the question comes up Could it be him?

It’s a sensitive topic. But also an important one.

Male fertility is often ignored in early fertility conversations. But the truth is, nearly 1 in 3 fertility delays in couples is linked to male factors. And the first step toward clarity? A simple sperm count test for male infertility in India.

Let’s break it down without fear, without judgement.

What is a sperm count test?

A sperm count test (part of a semen analysis) checks how many sperm cells are present in a man’s sample and more importantly, how many are healthy, active, and moving well.

The test checks:

• Quantity (how many sperm are present)
• Motility (how well they move)
• Morphology (how normal they look)
• Volume and pH of the fluid

It’s a painless, private test. No needles. No hospital admission. Just a collection done at a certified lab discreetly and quickly.

At Maternite, we refer many couples for this when they’ve been trying for over six months with no success.

When should a couple consider sperm testing?

If you’ve been trying to conceive for more than 6–12 months with no result, it’s time.
Even if the woman’s cycle is regular, sometimes the issue lies in the sperm count, motility, or structure. A simple test can save months of unnecessary treatment.

It’s also worth considering early if:

• The male partner has diabetes, obesity, or a history of smoking
• There’s been past injury or surgery in the groin area
• There’s excessive fatigue, mood changes, or sexual performance issues

Remember sperm health fluctuates. Stress, heat, diet, even lack of sleep can affect it. That’s why early testing can help rule things out or catch them early.

What can women do during this time?

It’s easy to start blaming yourself when things take time. But conception is a two-body process.
And while sperm testing is one part, we also guide women on how to boost fertility naturally without jumping to invasive treatments right away.

Here’s what helps:

• Daily walking or yoga
• Warm, freshly cooked meals with ghee, leafy veggies, and soaked nuts
• Avoiding caffeine and processed snacks
• Deep rest (not just sleep)
• Folic acid and iron-rich foods

And most importantly don’t let stress steal your peace. The mind and hormones are more connected than we think.

You don’t need to go through this alone

Fertility isn’t just about tests and reports. It’s about emotions. Waiting. Hoping. And sometimes, feeling helpless.

But one test can clear the fog. A sperm count test for male infertility in India is available in almost every city now and your doctor can guide you to the right one.

We’re not just here to treat. We’re here to listen.

Fertility is not a blame game. It’s a journey.
