    DH SA Report

    Hi All,

    Im here with my DH's Semen Analysis report.
    My Gyn was not very helpful in giving an analysis and wanted us to meet somebody at the infirtility clinic.
    I thought it would be nice to hear from experienced people if his report looks very bad and if there are any home remedies.

    His report says:

    Appearance: Normal
    Volume: 1.4 mL
    Viscosity: Normal
    pH: 8.1
    Motility: 74% motile
    Quality of motion:
    Rapidly progressive: 68%
    Sluggish: 6%
    Immotile: 26%
    Concentration: 124.0 *10^6/mL
    Total Motile: 128.5*10^6
    Normal Morphology: 8%
    Midpiece Defect: 79%
    Tailpiece Defect: 13%

    The gyn seemed concerned about his morphology.
    Please give me your feedbacks if you have had experience seeing such reports and how you had overcome this.

    Hi the report looks quite good to me. The counts are fine, the motility is excellent and the morphology is good too. anything about 14% morphology is considered good, but from what my doc told me, indian males tend to have between 4% and 10% morphology. and I know people who have used IUI and gotten pregnant with just 4% morphology.

    Thanks Pooja,Priyanka and Sharanya...your replies were so reassuring....
    We were totally upset on hearing about his results and this gives me some kind of hope...
    BTW, do u people think it is possible to conceive naturally with these counts?

    As I said earlier I don't see any reason why it shouldn't be possible naturally.
    My best wishes.

    @ Radha & Sharanya,My positive vibes also go with your thoughts.Yes we will...

    This report looks good.
