As well as recently launching a female-focused fertility test, Future Family also aims to make a fertility test for men easily accessible with its newest offering.
Future Family introduced what it calls a Sperm Activity Test (SAT) for men, which takes the form of an at-home test kit. The kit may be ordered online for $200, and is equipped with a set of instructions, and pairs one with a local clinic. Beyond just measuring volume, concentration, motility and morphology, Future Family connects its customers to a fertility expert for a video chat so that they have the chance to better understand their results.
The convenience that kits offer to consumers has resulted in the creation of a number of at-home tests for everything from blood tests to STIs.
