At-Home Sperm Test with Consultation
A Malebox at-home sperm test gives you a clear, clinical-grade picture of your sperm health, without a GP referral, a clinic visit, or a long wait. You collect your sample in private at home, send it to our accredited partner lab, and have your results explained by an expert fertility practitioner on a video call. It is the simplest way for men in the UK to understand where they stand.
What an at-home sperm test measures
Your sample is analysed as a full semen analysis, the same assessment used in NHS and private fertility clinics. It covers nine key markers: semen volume, total count, concentration, progressive motility, non-progressive motility, total motility, immotile sperm, vitality, and morphology. Every result is compared against World Health Organisation (WHO) reference ranges, so you get a proper benchmark rather than a vague indicator.
How the home sperm test kit works
Order before 4pm on a weekday and your kit arrives the next day. You produce your sample at home, package it using the temperature-controlled kit, and drop it at your local Royal Mail post office. Temperature-controlled packaging is unique to Malebox Health and matters more than most people realise, because a sample that gets too warm or too cold in transit can read lower than it truly is. Once it reaches the lab, you have your results within 24 hours.
Clinical-grade accuracy, explained clearly
Every sample is analysed by an andrologist who is HCPC (Health and Care Professions Council) registered, following WHO guidelines. Your results are then delivered in a video consultation with an NMC (Nursing and Midwifery Council) registered fertility practitioner, who walks you through what each number means and what your options are. You also receive a written fertility report designed to be understood without a medical degree.
Who it is for
This test suits men who want to proactively understand their fertility health, whether you are planning ahead before trying for a baby, or simply want a clear baseline. If you and your partner have been trying to conceive for 12 months or more, our Home Sperm Test and Male Hormone Profile follows NICE (National Institute for Health and Care Excellence) guidance by adding a full hormone panel. An at-home sperm test is a starting point, not a diagnosis, and results can vary between samples. What it gives you is a clear, accurate number you can act on, and the expert guidance to take the next steps with confidence.
At-Home Sperm Test & Male Hormone Profile with Consultation
The Malebox at-home male fertility test gives you the fullest picture of your fertility from home, combining a complete semen analysis with a male hormone profile. It is designed for couples who have been trying to conceive for 12 months or more, in line with NICE (National Institute for Health and Care Excellence) guidance that both partners be investigated. You collect your samples in private at home, send them to our accredited partner lab, and have everything explained by a fertility nurse on a video call.
What this male fertility test measures
This test goes further than a standard sperm test. The semen analysis covers nine key markers: semen volume, total count, concentration, progressive motility, non-progressive motility, total motility, immotile sperm, vitality, and morphology, all compared against World Health Organisation (WHO) reference ranges. The male hormone profile then measures eight hormones from a blood sample: total testosterone, free testosterone (calculated), FSH (follicle-stimulating hormone), LH (luteinising hormone), oestradiol, prolactin, SHBG (sex hormone binding globulin), and DHEA sulphate. Together these show how well your body is signalling and supporting sperm production, giving you and your clinician context that a semen analysis alone cannot.
How the kits work
Your order arrives as two separate kits: one for your sperm sample and one for your blood sample. Order before 4pm on a weekday and your kits arrive the next day. You collect your sperm sample at home and package it using the temperature-controlled kit, which is unique to Malebox and helps keep the sample stable in transit. Once both samples reach the lab, your results are brought together and delivered in a single video consultation.
Clinical-grade accuracy, explained clearly
Your samples are analysed by an andrologist who is HCPC (Health and Care Professions Council) registered, following WHO guidelines. Your combined results are then delivered in a video consultation with an NMC (Nursing and Midwifery Council) registered fertility practitioner, who explains what each result means and what your options are. You also receive a clear written report, designed to be understood without a medical degree.
Who it is for
This is the right test if you and your partner have been trying to conceive for 12 months or more, or if you simply want the most complete view of your fertility health in one go. Because hormones play a central role in how sperm are produced, pairing the two tests can reveal context a sperm test on its own would miss. It is a starting point, not a diagnosis, but it gives you a clear, accurate picture you can act on, and the expert guidance to take the next steps with confidence.
