No, the test is only able to determine the number of sperm present.
SnipCheck is designed to be used post-vasectomy. In cases where there are no sperm or <100,000 sperm per mL, it is not necessary to test for motility, and the procedure may be considered a success. In cases where there are >100,000 sperm per mL, it may be appropriate to repeat the SnipCheck test after ejaculating additional times. In other cases, your healthcare provider may recommend that you have a formal semen analysis obtained. Your results should be discussed with your healthcare provider directly. You should never discontinue secondary contraceptive measures until you have been instructed to do so by your medical provider.
Yes, the American Urological Association has released guidelines on post-vasectomy testing. Click here to refer to the guidelines (link). In general, a test showing 0 sperm or <100,000 sperm/mL is consistent with a successful vasectomy. If >100,000 sperm/ mL are observed, this may still indicate a successful vasectomy but may just require additional ejaculations before the numbers decline to the <100,000 sperm/mL range. It is important to never discontinue secondary contraceptive measures until instructed to do so by your healthcare provider.
If you received the test from your healthcare provider, they will be sent your results via fax. If you ordered your SnipCheck test online and provided your healthcare provider’s fax number, they will also receive the information. Otherwise, you may need to provide your results directly to your healthcare provider.
