Aynı hastalarda altı aylık aralarla tekrarlanan sperm analizlerinin karşılaştırmalı değerlendirilmesi

Introduction: The aim of the study were (i) statistical analysis of two different semen analysis results on the same patients after six months intervals and (ii) to examine if there are seasonal variations on semen parameterst. Material and Methods: Semen parameters of 56 patients who applied to the Andrology Laboratory of Assisted Reproductive Center of Zeynep Kamil Women and Children Diseases' Hospital were analysed by using Kolmogorov-Smirnov test and paired t-test. Results: There were increase on sperm count and motility on the same patients who gave samples two times with six months intervals (on March-April-May and September-October or November). However; this increase was not statistical meaningful. Conclusions: Statistical meaningful differences on the parameters of semen analysis of same patients were not observed. The results were pretty consistents; in spite of it is well known that the results could be effected by many factors. We also conclude that semen analysis is still very valuable since it is one of the most trustable, easiest and the cheapest method.
