Your semen analysis report appears to be normal other than low motility ( asthenospermia ). According to WHO, Motility ( progressive+non progressive) should be >40% out of which progressive motility should be atleast 32%. In your case progressive motility is on lower side. There are many factors which may impair sperm motility like environmental ( heat,Pollution,pesticides), Lifestyle ( smoking,alcohol, obesity, poor diet, stress etc), infections and few others. Though pus cells are within normal limits in your semen report ,still get a semen culture done to rule out infections. Taking antioxidants will help. Consult a fertility specialist or urologist.
