Detailed Answer:
Hello

I understand that your liquefaction is unusually high.

Men with such liquefaction have been treated and had children.

I request you to scan and attach both copies of semen analysis report with this query so that I can do complete analysis and give you detailed information.

Dear Sir

Please find the following reports
1) Report 1 - Taken during Jun 14
2) Report 2- Taken as a second opinion during Jun'14.

We took the two reports and visited Gynaec 1. She asked to take clofert XXXXXXX 1 pack. Coincidentally at the same time, my wife got a medium line on the pregnancy test kit. However, spotting started by 34-35th day and resulted in heavy bleeding. So gynaec 1 told it could be chemical pregnancy. she said to avoid sex for 3 months and then start again. we tried again on Oct 14 and Nov 14. During 18th Dec, again same result. She got medium line in the test kit. spotting started on the 34th -35th day. So we went to gynaec who said to wait and watch. We thought it would be better to take second opinion.

Went to gynaec 2. She said to go for TVS. TVS showed no pregnancy as endometrial thickness very small. Both the times, my wife said that she felt her body was not the same. she had tender/sore breasts.
Gynaec 2 said that TVS will give correct result and not pregnancy test kit.

Again in Jan'15, we did a semen analysis and the result is in

3) Report 3. We took this and went to the gynaec. she said to wait for one month from 8th Jan'15 and do one more semen analysis at another clinic. she also said that we can continue trying this month. So why wait one month for one more analysis? Because if we try this month, should we wait for one more month from when we try next for giving semen analysis?
She said no problem with my wife, but seeing my result she said that if the same result comes, then IUI is recommended.

We are totally confused? was my wife pregnant the two times? Is there some issue with me?

I am unable to attach report 3 which was taken recently. How can i share ?

Brief Answer:
Semen culture and sensitivity test needed

Detailed Answer:
Hi

If there was issue with your semen analysis, She would not have got pregnant.

Even i doubt authenticity of these reports.

First report from XXXXXXX diagnostic is wrong report. The parameters for normal semen analysis is itself wrong and report is not oligospermia . Ignore this report.

Second report does not show 6 hours of delayed liquefaction but they dont mention how much was time for total liquefaction.

You can scan and attach the third semen analysis report in the same way as you did other reports. I suggest you get this test in best labs in XXXXXXX If possible get it done in best labs at XXXXXXX which is near to you. You can get this test anytime now with 3 days of gap ( abstinence).

When you give the semen next time, please also get semen culture and sensitivity test done. This will show the infection of semen with an organism and way to treat it. Semen infection is the most common cause of delayed liquefaction.

Which labs are good in b'lore? I have attached report 3.

I find it difficult to believe that liquefaction time is so high. Is there any simple way to test this at home?

Brief Answer:
Wrong report

Detailed Answer:
Hi

It cannot be delayed by 6 hours. I told you its a wrong report. Dont go to XXXXXXX lab anymore.

This cannot be tested at home.

If you wish to come to XXXXXXX Please visit XXXXXXX IVI fertility at Sadashivanagar, Near Mekhri circle at 2 PM. I will be there and will personally go through your report and analyse the same. Doubts can be cleared at once.
