Hi

I read your query and I understand your concerns.

Following is my reply

1. Your sperm count is excellent. That is main parameter and is good.

2. There are pus cells suggesting infection.

3. This has led to decreased motility.

4. Please get semen culture and sensitivity test done to confirm infection.

5. You can take antibiotics accordingly after reports.

Let me know if you have any more questions.

What do you mean by
"decreased motility"

Brief Answer:
Progressive motility

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Can you see "progressive 25%".

That is progressive motility.

It should be 50% minimum.

Your report shows 25% which is probably because of infection.
