Brief Answer:
Repeat semen analysis
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
I understand your concerns.
Doing semen analysis from a single laboratory is not of much concern. You need to confirm if this report is true.
Hence please repeat semen analysis in another standard laboratory in your town. You can plan for ICSI after confirmation of semen analysis from another standard laboratory.
Ask them what are defects seen and percentage of each defect.
Regards
