Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXX

Your semen analysis report shows excessive number of abnormal sperms i,e abnormal morphology.Normally 16 % sperms should have normal morphology for natural fertilization.In your case,sperms with abnormal morphology are 98% and normal morphology are 2 %.
Round cells are abnormal cells in semen,it is also increased.

Other findings are within normal limit.
Sperm count is within normal limit.
Motility and liquefaction time are also normal.

If findings doesn't improve then you may need assisted fertilization technique like ICSI(Intra cytoplasmic sperm injection).

Brief Answer:
Please find detail answer below.

Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXX

First,let me assure you that condition is not very serious.
Ideally wait and watch should be done for some time as condition may improve with time.
You should avoid heat exposure to your scrotal area.Avoid tight underpants.
Avoid alcohol and smoking,if you take these things.

You need repeat test after four to six weeks to look for improvements. If there are no signs of improvement then additional tests may be required to see if there are any underlying issues that are causing the abnormalities.

Men with abnormal sperm morphology are not infertile, it just may take longer time than normal to do so.

In non responsive cases,couple may need assisted fertilization technique.

You can consult any reputed infertility center.
