Hi thanks for contacting HCM....

Noted asthenozoospermia means defective motility of sperm.Means abnormal motility.......

Teratozoospremia means defective morphology....
You have both above condition , So you have asthenoteratozoospermia.....

Your detailed history needed and proper investigation done.....
Rule out following common conditions............
-Diabetes
-Alcohol abuse
-Drug abuse
-Varicocele
-Testicular problems
-Infection of genital tract

Keeping these in mind consult surgeon for it.
Here natural conception will be defective.......
Assisted reproductive technology might be needed.......

Take care...
