Brief Answer:
Less motility

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I saw your reports.

Semen analysis report seem to be normal except for marginally reduced Motility.

Normal motility should be around 50 % which includes rapid and sluggish motility.

Your motility is around 40% which is marginally low and nothing to worry.

Your doctor has prescribed medicines to improve the motility. These help marginally. Repeat semen analysis after 1 month in a different standard laboratory in your town to assess improvement.

Let me know if you need anymore help.
