What Does The Semen Analysis Indicate?
Hi, my semen analysis has been done. Result is Quantity: 4.5ml., Alkaline with litmus paper: 7.4, Pus cell: 3-7/HPF, R.B.C: 0-1 / HPF, Epith cell: Present(++) and sparmatozoa found: 0-2 /HPF in living and dead conditions. What does it mean ? Is it possible to fertilize ?

Hello
Thanks for writing to HCM
Your semen analysis report suggests infection.
Infection is indicated by the presence of pus and epithelial cells in semen. Normally there shouldn't be any pus cells in semen.
Infection may be due to prostatitis,UTI etc.
You need antibiotics for infection.
Other investigation like routine hemogram,Culture and sensitivity,RBS,Ultrasound of pelvis should be done.Trans rectal sonography of prostate can be done if needed.
Hope i have answered your query.
Take Care
