What Does this semen Analysis Result Mean?
Hi. I had an SA done and the result is as follows . Volume 2ml, viscosity Hypoviscous., Ph 8.0, motile cell 80‰, active motile 70%, semen count 66 X 10*6 cell/ml. Please my worry is on the Hypoviscous. What does it mean. And what needs to be done on it.

Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
By your history and description, I must tell you first that Hypo viscous semen is not very common, and neither is it very significant finding in sperm analysis.
It is hyper viscosity of the semen that usually results in infertility. And even that is quiet treatable.
Other parameters on your test appear to be good and within normal range.
Usually, with the disease of the prostate you can get hypoviscous semen, but if you don't have any infection/pain or fever and you are less that 60 years of age, you need not worry.
Your semen must have been contaminated with urine.
Take care,
Regards

Dear User,
Thanks for using Healthcaremagic.
I have gone through the provided reports and did not find any abnormality with your semen analysis report. You have average number of sperms and with god motility percentage.
The viscosity have nothing to do with your ability to father child and it simply indicates activity of accessory glands in your genital area such as prostate.
Since it is normal you need to stop worrying about it.
I hope this helps you.
Thanks again.
