Hi,
Thanks for your query.
Your partener is on prezolon since feb.,because its a steroid and study shows that it affect sperm count.
In semen analysis motility should be more than 60%,analysis varies from lab to lab.
I think you should consult a doctor for preznolone use,because it affect sperm count.
You are able to concieve with under supervision of a doctor.
So don't worry.
take care.
