Hello
Your report suggests semen infection with sperm motility towards lower limit.
Motility should be at least 55%.Your findings indicate 55 % motility,so it is towards lower limit.
Semen infection may be due to UTI or prostatitis.
Infection is indicated by presence of excessive pus cells in semen.
You need proper clinical examination and further investigations.
You need routine hemogram,RBS,culture and sensitivity of semen.
Proper antibiotics depend upon culture and sensitivity report.
36 millions/ml sperm count is normal.Normally sperm count should be at least 20 millions/ml.
Other findings like liquefaction time is normal.
Motility should improve with control of infection.If infertility persists then you may need assisted fertilization techniques like IUI.
Get well soon.
Take Care
