You can log and view semen analyses using the Andrology tab on a patient's profile. Each addition and view of a semen analysis will open the individual andrology page for the relevant sample.

Updates to the Semen Analysis process in wawa:

We have revamped how andrology data is managed to provide a more specialized, flexible experience. This includes:

  • A dedicated andrology page (this replaces diagnostics—general lab reports have been moved to observations)

  • The semen analysis form now features expanded input fields

  • You can now access follow up processes—including Sperm Preparation, Cryo Storage, Test Preparation, and Test Freeze & Thaw—directly from the Semen Analysis form

  • Reports for follow up processes automatically reference the semen analysis of origin allowing for easier comparisons and trend tracking
