Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

I have gone through your history and semen analysis report. This semen analysis report shows that you have adequate sperm count for the fertilization but the problem is that 50% of your sperms are dead. With this much dead sperms the chances of fertilization is reduced. First of all I would like to know what medicine you were taking earlier to increase sperm count. Secondly I would advise you to get your scrotal color Doppler ultra sound of both testes to look at your testicular blood flow since varicocele (abnormal swelling of testicular veins) is not of the major cause of death of sperms within the testis.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
