Suggest Remedy To Improve Sperm Quality

Hi I have done my Semen Analysis in a famous hospital and the result is as follows...

Color :greyish white
Raction Alkakine
VOlume : 2.0 ml
liquification time : After 45 minutes

Count 5 million


Motility (1 hr)
Motile 20%
Sluggish 20%
Immotile 60%

Pus cells 1-2 Hpf 1-2

Morphology
Normal 40%
Abnormal Head 20%
Defective Neck 20%

Is there ways to increase the sperm quality to the required level ?
Will Intrauterine Insemination (IUI) work in my case?

Hello
Thanks for query .
Based on the report of your semen analysis that you have posted I would like make comments as under
The macroscopic characters like volume ,viscosity .Ph and liquefaction time are well within normal limits as per WHO standards .

However the sperm count is very low (5 million /ml) as compared to normal value of 30 -40 millions /ml ) suggesting you to have what is called as Oligospermia other parameters like motility and morphology of the sperms being normal .

With given values it is unlikely that you can impregnate your wife by natural means .

As regards your query about the possibility of pregnancy with Intra Uterine Insemination the chances of pregnancy with such a low sperm count can not be opined with certainty .

I would advise you to follow following general measures for 6 months which could help you to increase sperm count
1) Practice regular exercise for 45 minutes followed by meditation for 1/2 an hour in the morning.
2) Take high protein diet rich in vegetables and fruits and Vitamin A,C,D,E.and Zinc
3)Take anti oxidants like Almonds 5-6 everyday
4) Avoid alcohol and smoking.

Consult qualified Infertility specialist for evaluation and to explore possibility of pregnancy with the help of newly assisted reproductive techniques like IVF or ICSI.
