Hello and welcome to HCM
Before writing to you the interpretation of your semen analysis, I would like to let you know the normal semen parameters.
Semen volume: 2 ml/ ejaculate
Sperm count: 20 million/ ml
Motility: 50 % sperms should show active forward progressive motion
Morphology: 50 % sperms should have normal morphology
In your report, sperm count is normal, only 20 % sperms are actively motile and only 35 % show normal morphology.
So, motility of sperms and morphology of sperms is sub-normal.
There is marginal increase in the number of pus cells and epithelial cells.
these cells signify mild infection in the urinary tract or the reproductive tract.
Due to sub-normal motility and morphology, you may face the problem of infertility.
However, I advice you to get semen analysis done again after treating the mild infection.
Thanks and take care
