A simple sperm analysis (spermogram) can reveal levels of sterility. Sperm analyses include: measurements of sperm volume, pH-value, spermatozoid count, mobility, vitality, morphology, presence of erythrocytes and leucocytes, fructose-level, and functional tests. As each healths system in the world differs, I can't estimate the cost for such a procedure at the momen.
