Andrology is a specialised laboratory that performed assays to assess male reproductive health.
About us
Andrology is a medical speciality focused on male fertility. Ampath Andrology offers various tests that can assist in identifying male reproductive function. The laboratory is SANAS accredited and evaluates semen samples according to the WHO criteria.
A semen analysis (spermiogram) is the most commonly requested lab test for evaluating male fertility. It provides essential information about both the quantity (like sperm count and volume) and quality (like motility and morphology) of sperm. It's also the go-to test for confirming whether a vasectomy was successful by checking for the absence of sperm in the ejaculate.

Our analyses are based on validated genetic methodologies and adhere to strict chain of-custody protocols to ensure results are accurate, confidential, and legally admissible when required.
Our relationship testing services are commonly used in the following scenarios:
Paternity testing – to confirm or exclude the biological relationship between a child and an alleged father
Maternity testing – in cases of adoption, surrogacy, or hospital mix-ups
Sibling testing – to assess whether individuals share one or both biological parents
Grand parentage testing – useful when the alleged parent is unavailable for testing
Avuncular testing – to determine a biological relationship through an aunt or uncle
Immigration and citizenship cases – where proof of a biological relationship is required by authorities
Inheritance or estate claims – to establish rightful beneficiaries in legal matters
