Hello

Your report suggests sperm motility towards lower limit.

Motility should be at least 55 % for normal fertilization.You have 45 % non motile sperms.
You should do exercise and take nutritious food.

Rest of the findings like sperm count is normal.
38 millions/ml sperm count is normal.Normally sperm count should be at least 20 millions/ml.

If findings doesn't improve then you may need assisted fertilization techniques like IUI.

Get well soon.
Take Care
