Mansplaining semen analysis because nobody actually explains what these numbers mean.
A semen analysis report has three numbers that tell us almost everything about male fertility. Here is what they actually mean:
S***m Count: 43 Million/ml
→ Normal is above 16 million per ml
→ This tells us how many s***m are available to reach the egg
→ More isn’t always better, quality matters just as much
Motility: 50%
→ This is how many s***m are actually moving
→ Normal is above 40%
→ Even a high count means nothing if the s***m aren’t moving well enough to reach the egg
Morphology: 5%
→ This is the shape of the s***m
→ Only perfectly formed s***m can fertilise an egg effectively
→ Normal is 4% and above so 5% is within range
Three numbers. One report. But this is just the surface.
A standard semen analysis does not test s***m DNA fragmentation, the quality of the genetic material inside the s***m. A report can look completely normal and still leave questions unanswered.
If your reports are normal but conception isn’t happening there is more to look at. Come talk to us.
