What Does The Following Semen Analysis Report Suggest?
My husband age is 32, his sperm count is 8million, 40%active motility, 10% sluggish, 50% non motility, pus cells : 4-6 hpf. Doctor suggested oligocare tabs daily twice for 3months. My age is 29 doctor did a scan and told that everything is alright. Will there be increase in sperm count by taking these tabs. Please let me know as we are not interested in going to any treatments like IUI or so...
We cannot conclude anything from one semen analysis report. We need two reports from two different labs. This report is oligozoospermia. The count is low through his motility is good. Here nothing is mentioned about the morphology, which is another important feature of analysis which should be more than four percent. He needs evaluation because there are many causes for oligozoospermia.
A clinical evaluation to check for the testes size and varicocele and check his male hormones to know where the problem exactly is and then treat the condition. But then all-male medications are to be used for three months because that’s the time taken for production of sperms. So with this count, if you want to get pregnant, you should go for intrauterine insemination. So that best of the sperms are taken discarding impurities and dead sperms and directly place in the uterus. This method definitely increases the chances of pregnancy.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
