Hello,

I can understand your concern for your friend. I would explain you his semen analysis. Sperm count of any number above 20 million per ml is considered normal. At least 60% of sperm should be swimming, actively or sluggishly. Your friend's semen shows 75% of sperms in swimming state. In addition, at least 14% of sperms should show normal morphology, which is 30% here. Thus, according to semen analysis, your friend seems fine to be a father without treatment.

I would advise you to ask your friend to visit a gynecologist for examination of his wife. After examination and investigations of his wife, the doctor can suggest treatment of his wife, if needed or can guide him regarding the ways that can help them conceive faster.

I hope this information helps. Thank you for choosing HCM for your concern. Let me know if I can answer any follow up questions.

Best,
Dr. Viraj Shah
