My Husbands Motility Rate Is Low.Are There Any Chances Of Conceiving?
Hi, my husbands sperm count is 110 million but his motility rate is low i.e., Progressively motile is 20%, non - progressively motile is 20% and non - motile is 60%. Does he need any treatment? Are there any chances of conceiving?

HI
The total motile sperms are <50% which is abnormal. However the total concentration of sperms is high(110 million which far above average 60 millions). So on the whole there are many motile sperms. So there are possibilities of conception. But if does not happen, you can go for artificial methods.

Hi.. In a normal individual more than 50% of the sperms are progressively motile.. Sperm motility of less than 20% can lead to infertility.. Hence accordingly there are chances of conceiving..
