Hi,
Thanks for writing in.
Your semen analysis report is pretty good, most parameters are within normal limits.
No conclusion can be drawn from a single report. You should repeat this test after a month to see the results. Please avoid intercourse for 3 days before the test.
Only a single motile sperm is required for fertilization. So, you can't be infertile.
I agree that motility & morphology is somewhat deficient. But please do not take it final & wait for a final result. Meanwhile, investigate your female partner as well.
Best of luck.
