Brief Answer:
Contradicting reports
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
You are right. Both reports are contradicting.
It is not possible to identify the better one as both show entirely opposite results.
I cannot rely on any of them. I suggest you visit an IVF Centre in your town who should be able to identify the parameters clearly. Let me know which city you are staying so that I can suggest a good IVF centre.
These both reports does not conclude anything definitely.
Regards

Dear sir, as per your advice, I have got my semen test done again. I have attached the file (SRL REPORT. pdf). In total, It will be my 3rd semen test report, as you know last two reports were contradictory, and I hope this report will help identify the problem, if there's any. Could you please check these 3 reports and tell me what exactly is the problem? Do I need to get it checked again (4th time)?
Thanks!
Thanks!
