Brief Answer:
Semen analysis

Detailed Answer:
Greetings
I have seen your reports.It is within normal limits.
Total count and ,morphology are within normal limits.Regarding non progressive motility,it varies from lab to lab and time to time.
Total count should be more than 15.5 million per ml and morphology more than 4 %normal according to WHO guidelines. Your progressive motility is within normal limits.
I suggest you to consult an XXXXXXX or urologist and get yourself examined for any infections.If so correcting it will improve.
Avoid junk foods , carbonated drinks ,smoking and alcohol.Start some exercises daily.
Feel free to ask your doubts with more details
