Brief Answer:
subjective variation

Detailed Answer:
Hi, morphology is based on human observation under microscope. Hence some variation can occur from person to person. Anyway 4% is normal morphology required for fertility. Hence both values are good enough. Dont worry. Regards, Dr. Mahesh Koregol. IVF & Infertility Specialist
