Hello,
Welcome to HCM
Sperm Concentration of 21.0 millions/ml means there are 21 million sperms per ml of semen.
Motile count of 11.0 millions/ml means out of 21 million sperms, 11 million sperms are motile, that is more than 50% of the sperms are motile.
The results of your semen analysis shows a very much normal values except that sperm progression should be >50%,which in your case is 40%.
Hope you are happy with the answer.
