Hello,
Your semen motility is very low if only 5% sperms are active. I suggest you repeat your semen analysis report after three day of sexual abstinence period.
If still motility low than take more green leafy vegetables and fruits. Avoid smoking and alcohol if applicable. Drink more water.
Take multivitamin and L arginine, zinc, coenzyme Q containing drugs that help in improving sperm motility.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Parth Goswami, General & Family Physician
