Hello
Thanks for your query.You are are trying for a baby .There is nothing abnormal on the part of your wife.Your semen analysis shows what is termed as Asthenospermia which indicates low parentage of forward motility (Grade One) of sperm which in a normal circumstances should be about 50%.Unfortunately there in no medicine that can increase the motility of sperms.Since you have tried IVF once you may try it once again and if that too fails then it is better to go for ICSI which has got good results Please consult some Infertility Specialist for further treatment
