We are a bit confused... Alison

Hi

The morphology and the motility is perfectly fine . With regards to live sperms ,having 75% or more is generally considered suitable. Also one of the important criteria is concentration if sperms which you haven't mentioned.

Given that in the present result the vitality is low, I would recommend a repeat test 3 months after the first one.

Let me know if you have any other queries.
Thanks
