Whether you’re donating through Y factor for the first time or are a regular donor supporting multiple families, knowing your sperm health is essential and information that is of interest to many future parents. That’s why we’ve partnered with ExSeed, the award-winning at-home sperm testing kit.
ExSeed helps you test your sperm quickly, privately, and without setting foot in a clinic. Their at-home sperm testing kit connects directly to your smartphone. Over 60,000 men already use ExSeed to take control of their fertility, and now Y factor donors can too. Here’s how it works:
See your sperm in real time: Place a drop of your sample on the testing slide, position your phone over the device, and hit start. Within seconds, you’ll see your sperm swimming live on your screen.
Get medical-grade results: The app analyses concentration, motility, and volume with the same accuracy as a fertility clinic.
Track your progress: Your results are stored automatically in the app so you can monitor your sperm health over time.
Instant feedback: Receive tailored guidance on lifestyle changes that could improve your results.
Unbox your kit. Inside, you’ll find the ExSeed device, collection cups, and testing slides.
Collect your sample. Let it rest for about 15 minutes to liquefy.
Test and watch. Add one drop to the slide, position your phone, and start the analysis.
Get instant results. The app calculates your sperm quality in minutes.
As a Y factor donor, you can unlock exclusive ExSeed discounts directly through the app. Inside Y factor, navigate to your Profile → Partners → ExSeed, where you’ll find your special discount link. We recommend that every donor get tested before donating. It’s an easy way to build trust and show responsibility while ensuring the best possible donation experience for everyone involved.
Understanding your sperm health isn’t just relevant if you’re donating; it’s an important part of your overall well-being. Sperm quality can be a key indicator of wider health issues, including hormonal balance, cardiovascular health, and even lifestyle-related stress. Regular sperm testing gives men valuable insight into their reproductive health and can serve as an early warning sign for broader health concerns. By keeping track of your sperm quality over time, you’re not just improving fertility outcomes; you’re taking proactive control of your long-term health.
