An at-home sperm test kit that lets you check sperm concentration and motility in your own space. Bird&Be’s app-guided kit includes three tests and provides results, plus a video of your sample, in about 20 minutes.

Why we picked it: a practical first look at sperm health, with results you can bring to a conversation with your clinician.

Three tests included for checking sperm parameters over time.

App-guided testing with results in about 20 minutes and a video of your sample.

Measures sperm concentration, motility, progressive motility, motile sperm concentration, and progressive motile sperm concentration.

No sample mailing required. Follow the included instructions and app for each test.

You’ll find directions in the test kit, but here’s a quick summary. First, you’ll want to download the Yo Sperm app (get it on Android, iPhone, Windows PC or Mac). Then, follow these steps:

1. Open the app and connect the testing device to WiFi by following the instructions on the screen.
2. Lay out all the pieces from the box on a clean surface.
3. Collect your sample in the provided cup.
4. Add the liquefaction powder to your sample.
5. Wait 10 minutes, then mix your sample. It should now be runny.
6. Use the pipette to drop your sample onto the slide.
7. Insert the slide into the device. The device will record a video of the moving sperm and send it to the app on your phone. Your results will appear in 2 minutes.

Bird&Be is a science-backed, female-founded fertility brand making conception support simpler and smarter. From supplements to sperm-friendly essentials, the range includes at-home screening tests and daily supplements for different stages of the fertility journey.

The at-home test kit provides a numerical reading of several important sperm parameters for fertility:

• Sperm concentration: The number of sperm cells in your semen sample.
• Sperm motility: The percentage of your sperm cells that are alive and moving.
• Progressive motility: The percentage of your sperm cells that are able to move in a forward direction.
• Motile sperm concentration (MSC): Sperm motility represented as a total.
• Progressive motile sperm concentration (PMSC): Progressive motility represented as a total.

Essentially, these numbers tell you how many moving sperm there are in the sample something that’s key for male fertility. Sperm need to be able to swim forward to reach the egg and that’s what progressive motile sperm concentration reveals. Generally, the higher the better when you’re trying for pregnancy. Learning about these parameters early can help you get support sooner if needed, rather than losing time trying at home unknowingly.

Finally, you’ll get a recorded video of your sample, trust us, it’s cool! that can be shared with your doctor or kept completely private inside the app.

Includes the YO testing device and supplies for three tests. Use the kit’s inventory list to check the individual accessories before starting.

This is an at-home screening test. It does not replace a full fertility evaluation or confirm a successful vasectomy.
