What Does This Semen Analysis Report Indicate?
Question: My sperm analysis shows rbc3-5 hpf and pus cells10-12 hpf epithelial cells nil ...Does this indicate infection . I'm 70 yrs old
Brief Answer:
Possibly but needs more tests!
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
That is suggestive of a possible infection. There is a reason to be worried about a possible infection at this time as the number of pus cells are more than 10/hpf.
Do you have any other signs of an infection such as pain and frequent urination? If yes, I will recommend that you get a gram stain and possibly a culture sensitivity examination to establish this.
I hope this helps. I wish you well.
Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
Regards
