Brief Answer:
This is abnormal. Please, do a second test to control this. Oligospermia!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I have reviewed these results and they are clearly abnormal. The number of sperms per ml and the total volume of ejaculate is too small. I will suggest that you repeat this test and let’s confirm these findings. If they are confirmed, then you will certainly need to get further evaluation from an urologist and fertility specialist.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be. Above all, thanks for using our services.
