We are delighted to now be able to offer our patients Sperm DNA assessments…

Exciting news here at Life + Lemons! We are super happy to announce that we are now working in partnership with Examen- a world leader in male fertility testing, based on its heritage of over 25 years in male reproductive health and fertility treatment research.

Examen specialise in measuring sperm DNA fragmentation (known as sperm DNA damage) to help predict the likelihood of conception, miscarriage and the success of fertility treatment.

This test is so important as sperm DNA damage is one of the most important factors causing male infertility. Examen has developed a range of sperm DNA diagnostics tests that empower men to take control of their own fertility by identifying exactly what it is that they need to change.

The Exact range of tests is powered by Examen’s SpermComet® technology which has been proven to deliver an accurate assessment of sperm DNA damage for fertility diagnosis and information that can predict the outcome of IVF and ICSI fertility treatment.

Their fertility testing laboratory meets all the required standards and is our trusted number one choice for sperm cell analysis.

Founded by an internationally acclaimed expert in male fertility; Professor Sheena Lewis, Examen’s Exact range of tests, powered by SpermComet®, are the go-to tests for sperm DNA damage in 80% of the UK & Ireland’s leading private fertility clinics.

“Over 40% of men with a normal semen analysis have sperm DNA damage, but often this isn’t discovered until after IVF has failed… For men looking for answers straightaway, our Exact tests can save the time, money and heartache associated with infertility.” Professor Sheena Lewis, CEO, Examen

If you are inspired by our partnership and the prospect of unveiling the root cause of your infertility, or even if you just have some more questions about the tests and how you can get analysed, please contact us here at Life + Lemons and we will be more than happy to help offer you some more clarity and direction.
