Book Chapter Description

Cryopreservation-based sperm banking is an effective way to preserve fertility for men who anticipate future infertility for any reason. The conventional approach to sperm banking, with relatively limited in-person center-based clinical sperm banking facilities, is time-consuming and inconvenient, and has privacy concerns. Due to these issues, many men with the need for sperm banking are reluctant to seek conventional clinical sperm banking, especially in resource-constrained settings. New advancements in facilitating at-home sperm collection could have a significant impact on the availability of timely sperm banking. Here, we discuss current commercially available at-home sperm banking kits and emerging home-based semen analysis technologies such as smartphone-based microchips that can be used with at-home sperm banking kits.
