My OH's semen test results - what does this mean?

Hi, Ive just found OH's semen sample results from before DS1 and wondered if anyone could interpret them so I know if he naturally sways one way or the other.

These are the results:

Duration of abstinence: 2days
Appearance: Normal
Liquefaction: Normal
Viscosity: Normal
PH: 8.0 - interesting as havent tested him yet
Volume: 4.0 ml
Sperm concerntration - 31.50 x 10.6 /ml
Motality A - progressive - 18%
Motality B - sluggish - 38%
Motality C - non progressive - 16%
Motality D -non motile - 28%
Morphology - 12% normal forms



So I know the PH was 8 back then and prob eats the same now,will do a semen sample soon to see what it is now.

But is it high/low sperm count etc?

Thanks

not sure I fully understand what it means, but perhaps this link can help: http://www.inciid.org/article.php?ca...ertility&id=81

Thanks for the link, only worry is it said normal morphology should be 30% but his says 12%.............. the drs all just said it was all good and no problem!

I'd trust the doctors then, they're the experts!

Yeah, and we have 2 healthy boys which only took a cycle to fall pregnant so cant be that bad, if anything that could help sway girl!

hi chocolate--I am new to this site but just wanted to let you know about morphology (since my DH has low morph). There are two ways to test it--yours must have been tested with strict morphology where they look for anything over 5% (that testing is more common) so his morph looks great also!

Ah thanks for that info, makes sense now as they said he had excellent sperm results and no problem there whilst laughing!

I agree, if doc says all is normal, then all is normal! Different clinics do things differently so sometimes it's hard for we as laypeople to interpret.
