TUBAL CHECK (TUBE CHECK)
A tubal check is a simple test that shows whether your fallopian tubes are open. The tubes are where the egg and sperm meet, so if they're blocked, natural pregnancy can't happen. Tubal problems cause about 25–35% of female infertility. The most common test is the HSG, where a special dye and an X-ray show whether the tubes are clear. HyCoSy uses ultrasound instead. The test is done on days 6 to 11 of your cycle and causes only mild cramps. Open tubes may allow natural conception or IUI, while blocked tubes usually need IVF. At our IVF Center in Jalandhar and IVF Center in Amritsar, a Fertility Specialist Doctor in Punjab guides you to the Best IVF Treatment in Punjab.

How Does the Tubal Check Procedure Work?
- Before the Test: The test is booked on days 6 to 11 of your cycle, after your period ends. Take a simple painkiller about an hour before if advised.
- Placing the Dye Tube: At our IVF Center in Jalandhar or IVF Center in Amritsar, a thin, soft tube is gently placed through the cervix into the uterus.
- Dye and X-ray Images: The dye flows slowly into the uterus and tubes while X-ray images are taken. If the tubes are open, the dye spills out freely.
- Results and Next Steps: A Fertility Specialist Doctor in Jalandhar or Amritsar explains the results and plans your path, from natural conception and IUI to the Best IVF Treatment in Punjab, with one cost, one treatment.

How to Prepare for a Routine Sperm Analysis?
Good preparation is the key to accurate routine sperm analysis results. Sperm quality can change with abstinence time, lifestyle habits, medications, and even recent illness, so following your doctor's instructions closely helps avoid misleading reports and repeat tests. The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends 2 to 7 days of abstinence before giving a sample. At Vardaan, your Fertility Specialist Doctor in Punjab gives you clear, personalized instructions before the test.
- Abstain for 2 to 7 Days: Avoid ejaculation for 2 to 7 days before the test for the most reliable sperm count.
- Avoid Alcohol, Smoking, and Drugs: Skip alcohol, tobacco, and recreational drugs for at least 2 to 5 days before the test.
- Discuss All Medications: Tell your doctor about hormone treatments, herbal supplements, and prescribed medicines you take.
- Mention Recent Illness or Fever: A fever or infection in the past 3 months can temporarily lower sperm quality.
- Collect the Sample Correctly: Use the sterile container provided, avoid lubricants, and deliver it within 30 to 60 minutes.
At our IVF Center in Jalandhar and IVF Center in Amritsar, samples are collected in a private, comfortable room and analyzed with accuracy, helping you move faster toward the Best IVF Treatment in Punjab.
Why Is Sperm Analysis Important?
A sperm analysis is the most reliable first test for diagnosing male infertility, which accounts for 40–50% of all infertility cases. It shows whether low sperm count, poor motility, or abnormal sperm shape is making conception difficult, even when the female partner is completely healthy. A very low or zero sperm count can point to a blockage in the reproductive tract, while a semen culture test helps detect infections that affect sperm health. The test is especially important for men with varicocele, mumps orchitis, testicular injury, erectile dysfunction, small or undescended testes, or hormonal imbalances such as low testosterone. It is also used after a vasectomy, as a Post-Vasectomy

How Is Routine Sperm Analysis Conducted?
A routine sperm analysis is a simple, painless test that starts with collecting a fresh semen sample, which is then examined in the lab under a microscope. For the most accurate results, men are advised to avoid ejaculation for 2 to 7 days before the test. At Vardaan, samples are collected in a private, comfortable room and analysed by trained lab experts, with results reviewed by an experienced Fertility Specialist Doctor in Punjab.
Ways to Collect a Semen Sample
Masturbation
The preferred and most reliable method, as it gives a clean, complete sample directly into a sterile container.
Special Collection Condom
A medical-grade, non-spermicidal condom provided by the clinic can be used during intercourse. Regular condoms contain chemicals that damage sperm.
Withdrawal Method
Ejaculating into a container after withdrawal during intercourse is not usually recommended, as part of the sample may be lost or contaminated
Electroejaculation
A gentle electrical stimulation used under medical supervision for men who cannot ejaculate naturally, such as after a spinal cord inju
At Vardaan Medical Clinic, every report is reviewed by an experienced Fertility Specialist Doctor in Punjab. Whether you visit our IVF Center in Jalandhar or IVF Center in Amritsar, an accurate diagnosis is the first step toward the Best IVF Treatment in Punjab.

Precautions and Aftercare for a Routine Sperm Analysis
A routine sperm analysis needs no recovery, but a few simple precautions make sure the results are accurate.
- Collect the full sample: the first portion has the most sperm, so don't lose any of it.
- Avoid lubricants: saliva, oils, and regular condoms can damage sperm.
- Keep it warm and quick: deliver a home sample within 60 minutes at body temperature.
- No aftercare needed: you can resume normal activities right away.
- Recheck if abnormal: repeat the test after about 3 months, alongside healthy lifestyle changes.
