What is the difference between sperm washing and semen analysis?

Sperm washing is the process of isolating the sperm from the seminal fluid and other components of the semen sample, often used in assisted reproductive techniques like IUI. On the other hand, semen analysis is a diagnostic test that evaluates the characteristics of the semen, such as sperm count, motility, and morphology, to assess male fertility.
