General & Family Physician,  's  Response
As chances of pregnancy are not the best because very few of the sperm are forward progressively motile.
This could indicate a functional problem whereby the sperm are unable to fertilize the egg.
You still have an option for In Vitro Fetilizaion with Intracytoplasmic sperm injection to overcome a potential functional deficit.
You should consult the Infertility clinic before going through this procedure.
So do not worry. All the best.
