I'm looking at my semen analysis report and I'm a bit concerned about the results. It says my progressive motile sperm count is 30, non-progressive motile count is 25, and in total, the motile sperm count is 45. I'm wondering if these numbers are okay when trying to have a baby with my wife, or if I should be consulting a doctor to work on increasing that progressive motile count. Is a count of 30 generally good enough for us to conceive, or is there something I should be doing?

WHO standards place desired progressive motility count at 32%. Overall motility at 40%. It may be advisable to visit a sexual health consultant and obtain a more detailed treatment plan.

I'm a bit worried because when I peed, it really hurt, and then when I wiped, it burned even more. Should I be concerned about this, or is there something I can do to help relieve the pain right now?

That could be UTI, get a complete Urine Examination and Urine culture sensitivity done and visit Physician for appropriate management and also consume plenty of fluids.

I have 12mm and 6.3mm stones in both kidneys and my doctor recommended surgery to drill the kidney. I'm only 27 and really scared about going through this is surgery the only option or are there other treatments I can try at my age

While percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL), a surgery to drill the kidney, is a common option for larger kidney stones, it's not always the only treatment. Other options, like extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) and ureteroscopy, can be considered, especially for smaller stones or if PCNL carries a higher risk due to your age or other factors. Medical management and lifestyle changes can also be effective for some cases, particularly when the stones are smaller and less likely to cause complications
