Hello,
The answer is quite obvious that your husband's semen analysis is grossly ABNORMAL
According to the WHO 1992 criteria, the sperm count is normal (>20mil/ml), but grossly abnormal in morphology (>30% should be normally formed, 75% viable, 50% motile) and therefore these results should be reviewed by your infertility expert.
Hope that helps.
Best Wishes.

Hello, Welcome to HCM,
Firstly, your follicular study is quite satisfactory.
But, the semen analysis report of your husband shows normal sperm count ( Normal is >20 millions / ml as per WHO 2009).
The motility is also lower than normal ( Normal total motility is >40% as per WHO 2009).
The sperm morphology is also lower than normal ( normal is >4% as per WHO 2009).
So, form this report, it can be said, with this report, it is hard to get pregnant normally.
I think IUI is the better option.
