WHAT'S A Male-FactorPak (MFP)?

WHAT'S FERTILTY FRIENDLY LUBRICANT? 

MFP condom

The Male-Factor Pak (MFP) allows patients to obtain a high-quality semen sample for fertility and sterility testing and for use in other assisted reproductive technologies. By allowing patients to collect a specimen during intercourse in the privacy of their home, it provides a more natural alternative to yesterday's tradition: in a cup. This specimen gives medical specialists a more representative sample than ever before.

A fertility friendly lubricant specifically designed for use at intercourse is a great benefit for applying and removing the condom.  These lubricants are ‘sperm-friendly’ as it matches the qualities of the fertile cervical mucus, so it provides a helpful environment to facilitate conception. It is also an excellent, non-spermicidal lubricant for the male to use under the MFP condom.

​

Both the MFP and the lubricant are non-spermicidal, they DO NOT negatively impact the specimen. In fact, it can enhance better possibilities for higher sexual stimulation, reflecting in higher ejaculate volume for better quantity and quality of sperm.​

MALE FACTOR PAK (MFP) IN DEPTH

The Male Factor Pak (MFP) can be used for fertility testing and other treatments. This more natural method of sperm collection is recommended for couples who are experiencing male factor fertility issues or other while undergoing IUI or IVF.

​

It also gives medical specialists the opportunity to work with more representative samples produced at intercourse than ever before. Studies show that semen samples obtained through intercourse are superior producing more viable sperm than those obtained through masturbation.

Improved specimen viability and increased patient acceptance when masturbation is objectionable, are additional benefits that medical professionals have been waiting for.

UNIQUE ADVANTAGES

Non-Spermicidal:  Biologically inert polyurethane condom maintains sperm viability, motility and velocity. No mold; releases or powders used in condom manufacture.

​

Psychologically Acceptable:  Allows sample collection at home or other private settings and eliminates patient stress traditionally caused by religious, cultural or emotional objections to masturbation or coitus interruptus ("pull out").

​

Comfortable and Gentle:  Ultra-thin polyurethane facilitates sensitivity, satisfaction and high sexual stimulation.

 

Easy to Use:  Patient simply cleans genitals prior to use, removes condom when erection has ceased after ejaculation, and closes condom with a provided twist-tie.

 

Easy to Transport:  Patient seals condom in compact pouch with patient I.D. label, and transports to physician or laboratory, carrying it close to the body to maintain specimen temperature.

​

Sterile:  Individually sealed and packaged.
