Course of antibiotics suggested

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.

I have checked the attached report. The semen analysis is overall ok. However due to concerns about a possible genitourinary infection it is advisable to run a course of antibiotic like doxycyclin for 10 days.

Let me know if I could help further.
