Sperm analysis results

[Hopeistheword]

Can anyone explain these results. Been ttc nearly 3 years and these have just cone through for my husband. We have to wait 3 weeks for a telephone appointment with a doctor and its quite worrying. Is it as bad as it looks?

I’m not an expert, but you need to compare the result with the reference number in square brackets. > means that the result should be above the reference value. Scanning through the only result I can see below is morphology, which means that the shape/quality of the sperm is lower than it would ideally be. This may mean that ICSI is recommended.

Same here really, not an expert but from looking and casting my.mind back to mu husbands results, I think motility looks in range. Maybe you'd rather a higher number were rapidly progressive than slowly in an ideal world but unsure how much this matters of a good percentage of them are moving!

Morphology lower than the range as @PinaColadaJ says might mean you look at Icsi and there might also be lifestyle changes that could help imrpve that, my husband was recommended proxeed supplements and also heard good things about Impryl

Thanks, feel a bit better about that. We thought everything was looking bad. Hopefully the doctor will be able to shed more light and do something for us.
