Is Pregnancy Possible After Partner Having Abnormal Sperm Count?

My boyfriend has abnormal sperm count, and was told it will be difficult for his to get me pregnant naturally, my question is that is it possible at all as we don't use any birth control and unsure wether we should since he is unlikely to get me pregnant.

Hello and welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.

I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

If sperm are abnormal and low count then pregnancy is not possible. Following are normal sperm count: Count:(5th – 95th percentile): 15 – 213 million cells per Ml Motility:(5th – 95th percentile): 40 – 78% Volume:(5th – 95th percentile): 1.5 – 6.8 mL Morphology: (5th – 95th percentile): 4 – 44%.

So if semen parameter are not in normal range then natural pregnancy is not possible. So I would suggest to upload your semen analysis for better management. Take proper treatment for the abnormal sperm parameter after consulting urologist. Avoid stress, take healthy diet, drink plenty of water and do regular exercise.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Sagar
