Hi,
Thanks for query,
The semen report is on lower side of normal.
It has normal liquefication time means it produces enzymes are normal & having 100% motile means all sperms are moving.
Motility of sperms is important for conceiving.
The morphology percentage shows form of sperms.Abnormal sperms cannot take part in fertilisation process so in your case normal head is of 75% that is normal count for fertilisation.
I think this report shows better chances of fertilisation.
Thanks again.
