Hi, Lorry - they let my husband do his sample at home and just drop it off at the lab. I think that makes it a lot easier on them.

I would ask them about doing it at home. Some labs say the specimen has to be there within an hour and some say 30 minutes. As far as volume, that sounds good. The normal ejaculate is 2 - 6 mL. There is 1 mL in 1/5 of a teaspoon. So, if he gets a whole teaspoon, then he has 5 mL, which is great!
They will give him a sterile cup to ejaculate in. Then you need to keep it warm until you deliver it to the lab - either hold it in your hands, between your legs in the car, or in your bra.
