Does Intercourse Before Semen Analysis Test Impact The Result?

Hello, I am 29 years old and since last 1 1/2 year; we have been trying for baby. We have tested ourselves and have come to know that i have less Sperm count. But when the Semen analysis was done; the gap with the Semen analysis and intercourse was just 2 days. Is it because of this the Sperm count was shown less in the report? And if i want to go for Semen Analysis once again; can i directly go to any Lab for the same? Please suggest.
