Hello
Thanks for writing to us
Your semen analysis report suggests decreased sperm count with borderline decreased sperm motility.
Normally sperm count should be at least 20 millions/ml.
Normally at least 55 % sperms should be motile.
Besides clinical evaluation,you need few investigations.Ultrasound of scrotum and hormone assay should be done.
You should do exercise and take nutritious food.
You should avoid tight underpants.
Avoid cigarettes and alcohol if you take these things.
If low sperm count and decreased motility persists then you may need assisted fertilization techniques like IUI,ICSI.
Get well soon.
Take Care
