Hi,

Thanks for writing to HCM.

After reading your report I conclude that your sperm count is adequate but motility is less. With this report the chances to become father are less.

Sadly medicine has not come up with such drugs which have dramatic effects on sperm motility. Multi vitamin with zinc combination drugs are used with some improvement.

I suggest you to discuss with your regarding use of fertility drugs like lyco-Q or paternia tablet which have shown benefit.

I would suggest that you rule out varicocele in you , by a doctor. If it is there, get it operated. And do some life style modifications like -
-     Reduce weight, do exercise.
-     Stop smoking and alcohol.
-     Avoid caffeine.
-     Ware loose under garments.
-     Healthy diet with multivitamin and zinc.
-     Avoid trauma to testis.

With the treatment you should repeat your semen analysis after 3 months. If same state is there then better to go for IUI. It is intrauterine deposition of sperms. Here healthy sperms are selected and placed inside the uterus. You can try 4 to 5 cycles of IUI before proceeding to IVF.

Hope I have been helpful.

Regards
