Please can yo suggest if I need to go for medication , if yes which medicine? We are trying for pregenency for last one year.
Hi Bhaskar, Welcome to Chat Doctor, This report suggests poor motility of sperms. Normal sperm motility should be more than 40% out of which 32% should be progressive (WHO 2010). There are various causes which may lead to low sperm motility. You need to undergo complete clinical, hormonal and genetic evaluation to reach at cause of low sperm count. Please consult a Fertility specialist or Urologist.  Antioxidants and multivitamins will help you to improve sperm motility. You can take them in tablet form and include in your diet also. Include a lot of fruits, salads and green vegetables in your diet. Avoid oily and spicy food. Try to maintain or reduce your weight if you are overweight. Mild physical activity will help your cause. Avoid smoking or alcohol. Take care.
