Hello

Mentioned semen analysis may indicate low sperm count and low motility.

Motility is low.Normally it should be at least 55 %.Your husband's findings suggests 45% motility,so it is low.

Sperm count is also low.Normally it should be at least 20 millions/ml.

Your husband may need clinical correlation and investigations.
He may need routine hemogram,random blood sugar,ultrasound of scrotum,hormone assay etc.

He should avoid wearing tight undergarments and go for exercise regularly.
I suggest to take antioxidants and avoid alcohol,smoking if he take it.

Take Care
