Done Semen Analysis. Is My Sperm Quality And Quantity Enough To Father A Child?

Range 15 %or More) Normal :18.0% Head Defects :30.0% Tail Defects :31.0% mid piece defects :19.0% cytoplasmic droplets :2.0% fructose : 258 mg/dl Impression :ASTHENOZOOSPERMIA by analysing the above readings can you please tell me whether my sperm quality and quantity are good enough to father a child ? And please tell me what means in sperm agglutination (head to head), and (tail to tail) ?
The motility is lower than normal limit (as per WHO 2010, grade a should be >25% or all total >50%).
The Normal sperm count is also within normal limit (as per WHO 2010, normal sperm should be > 04%).
The pus cells, RBCs are within normal limit.( as per WHO 2010, normal semen should not contain any pus cells or RBCs).
So, overall, your report indicates just low sperm motility. For this you can take vitamin E and coenzyme q. As you have high sperm count, i think there will not be any problem. So, do not worry.
Regards.

Hello, Welcome to HCM, I am Dr. Das Look, your semen analysis report indicates normal sperm count (normal is 15 ml as per WHO 2010). The motility is lower than normal limit (as per WHO 2010, grade a should be 25% or all total 50%). The Normal sperm count is also within normal limit (as per WHO 2010, normal sperm should be 04%). The pus cells, RBCs are within normal limit.( as per WHO 2010, normal semen should not contain any pus cells or RBCs). So, overall, your report indicates just low sperm motility. For this you can take vitamin E and coenzyme q. As you have high sperm count, i think there will not be any problem. So, do not worry. Regards.
