1- physical exam:
total volume=4 ml
viscosity= increased
reaction= alkaline
color=greyish white
time of liquifaction= more than 60 min
2-microscopical exam :
sperm count= 55 million/ml
abnormal forms= 25%
spermatogenic cells=present
pus cell = 2 - 3 /HPF
R.B.Cs =1 - 2 /HPF
ova / parasites=Nil
3- viability (eosim - nigrosin stain) : 60% viable sperm
4-motility :
grade at liquifaction after 1 hr after 2 hr
a-active progressive 15% 10% 5%
b-sluggish progressive 25% 20% 15%

hai,
As per your quoted semen report it says abnormality in the motility of sperms and liquefaction time.
Liquefaction time should be within 20 to 30 minutes after ejaculation but in your case it is more than one hour. it seems to be because of infection.
regarding active forward progression sperm should be more than 50 % but in your case active progression is 15%and non motile is high.
other parameter total count,ph,are normal.pus cells normally not present. increased pus cells indicates infection.
At the end, i conclude your semen report is not normal. it is abnormal.
kindly consult a infertility specialist to rule out the cause for the abnormality.
thank you
hope i answered your query
