Semen analysis is a lab test performed to assess and evaluate male fertility. It is often used when a couple is diagnosed with infertility or on the road to fertility. Semen analysis includes its movement, shape, pH, volume, etc. 

Sperm washing is a process after extracting the semen to wash away non-motile sperm, mucus, or any other debris to ensure high-quality sperm. It is also a process to increase motility to provide healthy sperm for a procedure like IUI.

Sperm Preparation is exactly what it sounds like - the semen sample is diluted with a medium, and then subsequently reincubated until the time of fertilization. The swim-up method is also used most commonly - where it recovers a large fraction of healthy and highly mobile sperm.  

Sperm doesn't live for very long outside the reproductive organs, so sometimes they'll be frozen to preserve a man's fertility in the future. It can be preserved through cryopreservation or vitrification.
