Semen for AFB Stain

The "Semen for AFB Stain" test is a laboratory procedure that involves analyzing a semen sample to detect the presence of acid-fast bacilli (AFB), which are bacteria associated with certain infections, including tuberculosis. The sample is stained and examined under a microscope to identify any AFB, helping healthcare providers diagnose potential infections and guide appropriate treatment. This test is typically recommended if there are concerns about infectious diseases that can be transmitted sexually or affect reproductive health.
