Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for additional information.

Semen looks fairly normal. There is mild reduction in motility.

Let him follow some lifestyle modification adviced below:

1) Stop smoking and alcohol if he has habits.

2) Wear loose pants and undergarments.

3) Lose weight if he is overweight.

4) Exercise regularly and have balanced diet.

These will help in improving motility. No medicines required as of now.

Let me know if you need anymore help.
