Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for writing to us with your health concern.
Your
sperm count is within the normal range, though slightly lower.
The motility is not adequate.
First of all please get a repeat
semen analysis done after 3 days of abstinence.
Two tests atleast should be done before proceeding with evaluation.
Next you should visit a good XXXXXXX /
Urologist in your city.
There are various causes of poor
sperm motility, and treatment depends on the cause .
You should have a thorough physical examination, also a genital
ultrasound and hormonal tests / biopsy to arrive at the cause for the reduced sperm motility.
Some common reasons which can be modified at your level are - obesity, stress, late nights, unhealthy eating habits, smoking, alcohol, excessive tea or coffee consumption, tight underclothing, exposure to heat, steam, hot tubs, saunas, exposure to drugs, radiation or toxic chemicals,
prolonged periods of abstinence etc.
Apart from that , genetic causes, hormonal deficiencies, infections and blockages of the ducts - all can lead to reduced motility.
Some of the conditions are treatable and a few are not.
So a diagnosis is first necessary before formulating a treatment plan.
In general -
1. Exercise for atleast 30 minutes five days a week.
2. Maintain ideal weight.
3. Reduce stress levels.
4. Be disciplined in regard to meals, sleep, work etc.
5. Eat lots of flax seeds, sunflower seeds, oats, fresh fruits, green leafy vegetables, tomatoes, sprouts, lemon, amla, oranges, kiwifruit, strawberries, blueberries etc. Cook your food in olive oil / cannola oil. Avoid eating outside.
6. Take a
multivitamin and carnitine supplement - will be prescribed by your doctor after examination.
All the best.
