Men planning to conceive should visit the Department of Eugenics and Healthy Birth for preconception examinations. If planning to have children, men may undergo tests—including serum sex hormone level assessment, scrotal color Doppler ultrasound, and routine semen analysis—at either the Andrology or Urology Department of a hospital. These examinations help evaluate sperm quality. In cases of asthenozoospermia (reduced sperm motility), men may, under medical guidance, take kidney-tonifying medications to improve fertility function.
