Hello and welcome to HCM,
The normal semen analysis is as follows:
1. Volume: 2ml/ejaculate
2. Sperm concentration: 20 million/ml
3. Motility: > 50% sperms should have forward progressive motion
4. Morphology: > 50% sperms should have normal morphology
In your husband's case all the parameters- sperm count, motility of sperms and morphology of sperms- all have sub-normal values.
Presence of pus cells suggests presence of infection in the uro-genital tract.
A repeat semen analysis is required after treatment of infection.
A repeat semen analysis should be carried after an abstinence of atleast 3 days.
Correct diagnosis can only be given only when infection is controlled.
Management can only be done after treatment of infection.
Thanks and take care
