Brief Answer:
Yes it will affect the results.

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for query .

Ideally in order to get proper results Semen analysis has to be done with strict abstinence for 3-4 days (No ejaculation) prior to collecting semen samples.

Since you had night emission all the values will be low.

I would suggest you to wait for one week and then plan to get it done .

Hope I have answered your query ,please feel free to ask if you have more questions ,I shall be happy to help you
Thanks and Regards.

I can able to ejaculate only through masturbation not during intercourse. I had 51 million sperm count. No problem in semen analysis. XXXXXXX i try to ejaculate during intercourse, if not means masturbate and at the time of ejaculation i insert my penis into vagina. But it won't help. We r expecting a child.
