Sperm count: 39 mill/ml, grade of motility on liquefaction: actively-00%,good-20%,sluggishly-30%, non motile-50%, abnormal forms:45%. epithelial cells 0-1/HPF, leucocytes:absent, erythrocytes;0-1/HPF,precurser cells: absent.

Hello
Your semen analysis suggests low sperm motility.Normally it should be at least 55 %.You have 50 % sperms with low motility.
Total sperm count is normal.Normally it should be at least 20 millions/ml.You have 39 millions/ml,so it is normal.
Other findings like colour,pH,volume,liquefaction time etc are normal.
You should take nutritious diet and do exercise.
If low motility persists then assisted fertilization techniques like IUI can be considered.
Take Care
