Hello, Sad to hear about your report. If I am your advising doctor, I would like to say you that some of your semen parameters requires attention like pH 8 which suggest alkaline and infectious etiology. Sperm concentration is 15.7 million/ml which is some what low, progressive motility is nil this is the utmost important to make ovum fertilize, you have immotile sperms 91.1% which is a worst situation. So in my suggestion I would like to add you that you might have some kind of infection and i would like to advice you to take doxycycline treatment for one week. I also advice a followup to you after a two week for repeat semen analysis. If you have something to ask me you can contact me Dr. Arun Tank. Thank you.
