Does having agglutination in a semen test mean its harder to get pregnant, and is it something we should be worried about? We've been trying to conceive for about five months now, and I'm a bit concerned about what this might mean for our chances. What should we do next?

The presence of agglutination in a semen analysis may indicate an issue with sperm motility, as it suggests that sperm are clumping together. While this can potentially affect fertility, it is not always a major problem. I recommend consulting a fertility specialist for further evaluation and guidance, as other factors also play a role in conception.
