The Anti Sperm Antibody (ASAB) test is a specialised test used to detect antibodies that may attack or damage sperm, which can reduce fertility in both men and women. These antibodies can affect sperm movement, sperm function, and the ability of sperm to fertilise the egg. The test is commonly recommended in cases of unexplained infertility, low sperm motility, or failed pregnancy attempts despite normal reports. Identifying ASAB helps doctors plan the right infertility treatment, including IUI or IVF if required.
