Brief Answer:
ICSI

Detailed Answer:
Hi

I saw your reports.

1. Scrotal doppler ultrasound scan is shows grade 1 varicocele which is not a great concern and is fine.

2. Hormones are normal.

3. Count and motility of sperms is extremely low.

4. This is unlikely to be increased by any medicines.

5. Best possible way to conceive would be to go for ICSI treatment.

6. Meanwhile continue drugs you are taking.
