Scientists believe that semen quality may be a reliable biomarker of overall health and life expectancy
Great experience. Easy to use, with clear guidance at each step. Happy I didn't need to go to the doctor for this.
Maya & Jordan K.
Got this for my husband. Simple instructions, and liked the results overview with actions. Recommend to any couple TTC

This is a game changer for men because it means they no longer have to come into a lab or clinic to provide a sample, an experience some find unnerving and challenging -Dr. Mary Samplaski
Was a bit skeptical at first. But after doing research together we found that mail-in tests are also accurate. Confirmed with a fertility specialist, who recommended we do the test with DNA fragmentation. We got the results a few days later with clear next steps.
Sari & Marcus
Until now, men had to make an appointment with their doctor to be evaluated for male factor infertility. The process can be very embarrassing, and often causes delays if a man is hesitant to see his physician and a couple is not getting pregnant. Well, those days are over. - Yale, Dr. Stanton Honig
Process was smooth. Got my results within a few days and discussed with my urologist.
Ethan P.
Sometimes we see couples go through costly reproductive techniques, like in vitro fertilization, only to discover that the male had an easily treated condition. Identifying male-factor infertility early can make the difference between pursuing less invasive treatments or needing costly IVF cycles
F.A.Q.
SwimScore uses a CLIA-certified laboratory and industry-standard semen analysis methods to measure key fertility parameters. Results are reviewed using the same scientific principles used in fertility clinics, giving you reliable, lab-grade insights from home.
Sperm takes about 70–90 days to fully develop. If you’re tracking improvements or making lifestyle changes, we typically recommend retesting every 2–3 months to see meaningful trends over time.
SwimScore analyzes the same core semen parameters as most in-clinic fertility tests, but without the inconvenience or awkwardness of a clinic visit. You get lab-grade results, clear explanations, and the ability to track changes over time — all from home.
Yes. SwimScore is built with privacy at its core. Your data is encrypted, stored securely, and handled in compliance with HIPAA standards. Your results are yours — we never sell or share personal health data without your consent.
Not yet — but it’s on our roadmap. We plan to integrate wearable and lifestyle data to help you better understand how sleep, stress, activity, and recovery may impact your fertility over time.
Your SwimScore translates complex lab results into a simple, easy-to-understand score, along with detailed explanations of each metric. You’ll see how your results compare to clinical reference ranges and what they may mean for fertility.
Once your sample arrives at the lab, results are typically available within 2–3 business days. You’ll be notified as soon as your SwimScore is ready.
Yes. Factors like sleep, stress, nutrition, exercise, alcohol use, and heat exposure can all impact sperm health. Because sperm regenerates over time, positive changes today can lead to measurable improvements in future tests.
