Hi, thanks for using healthcare magic

In semen analysis, the sperm count is regarded as normal if it is greater than 20 million- your husband's result is 132 mill, so this is normal.

Motility refers to the movement of the sperm and this is normal if at least 50% of the sperm are regarded as motile- the report states that 60% are active which is normal

The report also states that 80% were normal, this may be referring to morphology which is the appearance of the sperm (whether they look normal or abnormal). A result of 80% normal is good.

I hope this helps
