Fructose testing considered for patients with azoospermia and low volume ejaculates to establish the origin of the azoospermia.
Fructose is produced in the male reproductive tract by the seminal vesicles and is released into the semen during ejaculation. Fructose is the energy source for sperm motility.
A positive (indicated by color change) fructose is considered normal.
A semen specimen that contains no sperm (azoospermia) and is fructose negative may indicate an absence of the seminal vesicles, absence of the vas deferens in the area of the seminal vesicles, or an obstruction at the level of the seminal vesicles.
For infertility testing, refrain from having sex or masturbation for 2-5 days before sample collection; carefully follow instructions provided.
