Semen Volume

Semen volume measures the total amount of ejaculate produced. It is a critical component of the Semen Analysis panel as it reflects the secretory activity of the seminal vesicles and prostate gland. Sufficient volume is necessary to transport sperm through the female reproductive tract and buffer the acidic environment of the vagina.

Why Context Matters
Volume measurements can be significantly impacted by incomplete collection (missing the first portion of the ejaculate), the period of abstinence (too short or too long), and hydration status.
Lab ranges are statistical averages, not biological laws. "Normal" for a 20-year-old male isn't normal for a 60-year-old female.
