OUR RELATIONSHIP
Featured provider (commercial relationship)
No referral fee
Results from different methods use different scales, so a percentage from one test can’t be compared directly with another.
HOW WE COMPARE
Same questions, every provider.
Same questions for everyone
Every listing answers the same questions: cost, what’s included, how you collect, how long results take. If a provider doesn’t publish an answer, we say so.
Sourced and dated
We take facts from each provider’s own website and show the date we last checked. Sources are linked on every profile.
Featured, and labeled
SwimScore Advanced is our featured value option because it has the lowest published price. It’s always labeled, and you control the sort order.
Common questions
Are at-home kits as reliable as in-clinic collection?
It depends mostly on the lab method and how the sample is protected on its way to the lab. At-home kits use packaging or transport liquids designed for this. If you’re unsure, ask the provider how they protect samples in transit.
Can I compare results from different methods?
Not directly. Each method uses its own scale, so 20% on one test doesn’t mean the same thing as 20% on another. Compare your result with the range on your own report. How to read your result
Do I need a doctor’s order?
Not for SwimScore, Sapyen or Legacy: you can order these online. Fellow’s test will be ordered through clinics. A clinician can still help you understand your result.
Why is SwimScore featured?
We have a commercial relationship with SwimScore. We feature SwimScore Advanced because it has the lowest published price among these tests for a combined semen analysis and DNA fragmentation result. Featuring it is a commercial decision, not a judgment that it’s more accurate. Every listing uses the same fields and sources. Full disclosure.
