Question 2

I have done a semen analysis. I am unmarried and 27 years old. In the report my sperm count is 80 million per ml, pH 7.7 alkaline, actively motile 60 percent, sluggish 20 percent, non motile 20 percent, normal forms 80 percent and abnormal forms 20 percent. Pus cells are 18 to 20 per hpf and epithelial cells are 1 to 2 per hpf. Could you please give information about my report?

Question 3

My son had a fever (100F) which subsided in 2 to 3 days. After 4 days, he developed red rashes all over his body. On the doctor advice, we got a CBC test along with IgM and IgG tests, IgM was positive. Within 3 days, the rashes disappeared. The CBC report showed some variations (low PCV, MCV, neutrophils), though platelets were near normal. The doctor advised hydration and close monitoring, mentioning it is a mild infection that can become severe.
He has been active and playing normally. After 2 days, repeat CBC showed hemoglobin and PCV were increasing. After another 3 days, hemoglobin was higher, PCV remained high, and IgM was still positive.
We are worried about these rising trends, though he remains active. Should we hospitalize him or continue care at home?

If your doctor is recommending a hysterectomy (removal of uterus and ovaries) at 33, that suggests a significant condition like fibroids, endometriosis, or abnormal bleeding. Future effects include infertility and early menopause.
