Brief Answer:
repeat semen analysis after a month

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Welcome.
I have gone through your query.

In the report pus cells are more indicating genitourinary infection. Increase in the no of abnormal sperms, might be because of this.
In present situation I would have given a course of antibiotics and would have asked for a repeat semen analysis a month later. It is also advised that you should do abstinence of 3 days before giving a sample.

Hope this helps.
Take care.
