About
YO Home Sperm Test is a doctor-recommended, FDA-cleared male fertility testing solution designed for private, accurate, and convenient use at home. Developed by Medical Electronic Systems (MES), a global leader in male fertility testing, YO delivers clinical-grade semen analysis results directly through a smartphone app in under 20 minutes — eliminating the need for lab visits or sample mail-ins. The YO app guides users through a simple, step-by-step collection and testing process, then performs a full semen analysis measuring Sperm Concentration, Motility, Progressive Motility, Motile Sperm Concentration (MSC), and Progressive Motile Sperm Concentration (PMSC). One of YO's standout features is its ability to record a live video of the sperm sample, giving users a real-time visual of sperm count and movement. Results comply with WHO 6th Edition standards — the same benchmark used by fertility professionals worldwide — achieving over 97% accuracy. All data is securely encrypted and stored within the YO app. Users can generate comprehensive, shareable PDF reports to bring to consultations with their healthcare provider. The 3 Test Kit ($99.95) comes with everything needed for testing, ships discreetly, and supports ongoing fertility monitoring over time. YO is ideal for men and couples exploring fertility options, those preparing for specialist appointments, or anyone seeking private insight into their reproductive health without the stress of clinical settings.
