Hello

Your husband's report suggests semen infection with low sperm count and low motility.Infection is indicated by presence of excessive pus cells and RBC in semen.
Semen infection may be due to UTI or prostatitis.

He need proper clinical examination and further investigations.
He need routine hemogram,RBS,culture and sensitivity of semen,colour doppler of scrotum.
Proper antibiotics depend upon culture and sensitivity report.

Sperm count is also low.Normally sperm count should be at least 20 millions/ml.

Motility should be at least 55 %.Your husband has only 30 % motility.

He has normal sperm morphology.Only at least 16 % sperms should have normal morphology for normal fertilization.He has 79 % normal morphology sperms.

Motility and sperm count is expected to improve with control of infection.If infertility persists then assisted fertilization techniques can be considered.

Get well soon.
Take Care
