Can I Father A Child With The Following Semen Analysis Report?

Hi,
I have just been to see the doc having had my second semen analysis test results and he seemed as clueless about the results as I am. I've listed the results of the first and second results below, could you please tell me whether or not these are normal or whether I may have an issue in being able to father a child?
TEST 1:
Volume: 3ml
Concentration: 36 x 10 to power of 6 per ml
Total Sperm count: 108.0 x 10 to power of 6 per ml
Motility: 95%
Progression: 3
Abnormal Forms: 10%
TEST 2:
Volume: 4ml
Concentration: 15 x 10 to power of 6 per ml
Total Sperm Count: 60 x 10 to power of 6 per ml
Motility: 70%
Progression: 2
Abnormal Forms: 15%
Any advice would be greatly appreciated as the two results seem to differ greatly. Many Thanks.

Hi, dear.
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. Both results are different. But both are normal. Sperm count more than 20 million per ml and motility more then 50% is considered as normal. Its possible to have this kind of report with a child.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
