Hello
Thanks for your query,based on the facts that you have posted it appears that you have
what is called as Asthenospermia meaning there by that % tage of rapid progressive motile sperm is just 5% .Rapid progressive motile sperms are the only sperms which are capable to fertilize female egg.to result into pregnancy.which as per WHO norms should be more than 15%.
You have pus cells in semen which can be cause of your asthenospermia .
Please take antibiotics like DOxicycline twice daily for one month and repeat semen analysis after one month.
