Interpretation Of The Test Results

 

A Positive Test Result indicates you should continue using other birth control and talk to your doctor about what to do next. We suggest that you wait at least two weeks before testing again with a new SpermCheck® Vasectomy kit.

 

A Negative Test Result indicates your sperm count is extremely low, at or below a level shown by scientific studies to present very little risk of pregnancy.

 

Please Note:

This SpermCheck® Vasectomy Kit contains everything you need to perform one SpermCheck® Vasectomy test. You should follow your doctor's instructions about how long to wait after your vasectomy before performing the test.

The results of your test should be negative. If your result is not negative then test again with another SpermCheck® Vasectomy Kit. Many physicians recommend continuing other birth control after a vasectomy until two sperm tests with negative results are completed. We recommend you follow this guideline and test with SpermCheck® Vasectomy until you have obtained a negative result on two tests spaced two weeks apart.
