Hello
Thanks for writing to us
There shouldn't be any problem in conception.
Only 16 % sperms should have normal morphology for natural fertilization.It is important to know that other parameters like sperm count and motility should be normal.
If there is persistent infertility then patient may need assisted fertilization techniques like ICSI(Intra cytoplasmic sperm injection).
Get well soon.
