Post ejaculate urinalysis (PEU) is a test performed on urine after ejaculation. This test is to check for sperm in the urine. PEU samples must be collected at the clinic.

Reasons for PEU

  • You have a low semen volume

  • You do not have an ejaculate

  • You have retrograde ejaculation

Retrograde Ejaculation

This is a condition where the semen flows back to the bladder instead of flowing out through the penis during ejaculation.

Getting Ready for Your Post Ejaculate Urinalysis

  • Do not have sex or masturbate for 2-3 days before your test.

  • Bring a government issued photo ID to your visit.

  • Drink plenty of fluids the night before your visit.
