Hello

Your husband's semen analysis findings may indicate semen infection with borderline low motility.
Infection is indicated due to presence of WBC and RBC in semen.Normally semen shouldn't contain any WBC.

He may need investigations like routine hemogram,random blood sugar,semen culture and sensitivity,ultrasound of scrotum.
He may need to take antibiotics based on culture and sensitivity report.

Motility is also borderline low.Normally it should be at least 55 %.

Sperm count is normal.Normally it should be at least 20 millions/ml.

Fertility is expected to increase with control of infection.

Other findings like pH,morphology etc are normal.

He should take healthy and nutritious diet.Avoid alcohol and cigarettes if he take it.

Get well soon.
Take Care
