Semen Collection Condom
With the Male FactorPak, you can perform semen collection naturally and effectively. The complete kit contains the products men need for convenient collection. The Pak includes a sensitive Male Factor condom that allows you to collect sperm samples during intercourse. These samples can then be used for fertility testing and treatments. This more natural method of sperm collection is recommended for couples who are experiencing male factor fertility issues while undergoing IUI or IVF. The right condom for collecting semen will decrease collection anxiety and significantly increase functional sperm in a sample.
Please Note: These condoms only come in one size. If your penis size is above average, this condom may not fit very well.
A review of published literature shows that total sperm counts, sperm motility, and the percentage of sperm with normal morphology are often 2-3 times greater in men who collected samples in condoms during intercourse.*
The comfortable polyurethane Male Factor condom allows for sample collection during intercourse or during a physician-advised method of achieving ejaculation.
The Male FactorPak condom is:
-
Non-Spermicidal - The biologically inert polyurethane condom maintains semen motility and velocity. No mold release chemicals or powders are used in the condom’s manufacturing.
-
Comfortable & Gentle - An ultra-thin material facilitates sensitivity and high sexual stimulation.
-
Sterile - Individually sealed and packaged
-
Easy to Use - Patient simply cleans genitals prior to use, removes condom when erection has ceased after ejaculation, and closes condom with provided twist-tie.
-
Easy to Transport - Patient seals condom in compact pouch with the patient I.D. label, and transports to a physician or laboratory, carrying it close to body to maintain specimen temperature.
Male FactorPak Is a Sperm Collection Condom
If you have not previously used a sperm collection condom for samples, consider purchasing more than one condom. You can order a sperm collection kit that includes two or more condoms. If lubrication is needed during natural semen collection choose a sperm friendly lubricant that will not harm sperm. A man can apply a small amount of lubricant before putting on the condom.
