Semen TB PCR
Understanding the Semen TB PCR Test
The Semen TB PCR Test utilizes Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) technology to detect the genetic material of tuberculosis (TB) bacteria in semen. This highly sensitive test is important in identifying TB infections that may impact male fertility.
Why is the Semen TB Test Required? This test is vital for diagnosing genital tuberculosis, a potential but often overlooked cause of male infertility. It’s especially important in areas with high TB prevalence or in cases with unexplained infertility.
Who Should Undergo This Semen TB PCR Test? Men experiencing unexplained infertility, particularly in TB-endemic regions, or those with a history of tuberculosis, should consider this test. It’s also advised for individuals with abnormal semen analysis results where TB infection is suspected.

Interpreting the Results
A positive result indicates the presence of TB bacteria in the semen, suggesting an infection that could be affecting fertility. Conversely, a negative result suggests the absence of TB bacteria, pointing towards other causes of infertility.
Utility for Patients with Male Infertility:
Positive reports guide the need for targeted anti-tuberculosis treatment, which can potentially improve fertility outcomes. This test is a critical step in formulating an effective treatment plan for men affected by genital TB-related infertility.
Overall, the Semen TB PCR Test offers valuable insights into the role of tuberculosis in male infertility, enabling targeted treatments and better management of this condition.
