Brief Answer:
Presence of infection in semen
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query on HealthcareMagic.
The interpretation of semen analysis report is as follows:
The physical characters of the seminal fluid - volume, appearance, pH, viscosity and liquefaction time is within normal limits.
The sperm count is not mentioned, however, the motility is mentioned.
Sperm count is very important to assess the adequacy of semen sample.
The motility of sperms is below normal range. Atleast 40% sperms should have active, progressive, forward motion.
Values below this percentage is subnormal.
Presence of pus cells and epithelial cells suggest presence of infection in the reproductive tract.
Presence of 1-2 immature cells/ hpf is also within normal limits.
These findings suggest presence of infection in the semen.
Consult your doctor with report for treatment of infection in the genital tract.
The semen test should be repeated after treatment of infection.
An opinion can be given after treating the infection.
Thanks and take care
