Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic

All healthy males have some level of bacteria in their semen. These normally occurring flora colonize in the reproductive and urinary tracts and typically do not cause any harm. In males who aren't circumcised, bacteria may also colonize behind the foreskin. Overgrowth of this bacteria can be prevented through proper hygiene. Colonization of bacteria is not considered an infection. An infection is typically related to additional symptoms, such as urinary frequency or urgency. In your case, your semen analysis is not normal. there is no harm in checking status of sperm after one month of antibiotic course.

thanks
