What does this semen analysis report indicate?
Patient: hi i got a semen analysis done the result is  volume 2ml,  color greyish white, viscosity viscous, Ph 8.0,  sperm count 140 million, pus cells 5-6/hlf, epithelical 2-3/hpf,  actively motile 50%, sluggishly 10%, dead sperms 40%, morphology normal 80%, abnormal head-05%, neck-10%, tail-05% pls advice on the report Doctor: Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.  I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.  Your semen analysis report shows good total sperm count with 50% motile sperms which is also quite good number but still there are 40% dead sperms which might be due to mild pyospermia (pus cells in semen). Pyospermia should be treated if it is severe which means more than 10-15 cells / HPF. Usually a course of antibiotics gives excellent results. I would like to know more about your history any symptoms plus the need for this semen analysis.   Hope I have answered your query.  Let me know if I can assist you further.
