I'm a bit worried because even though all my reports are normal and I've been doing follicular studies for the last two cyclesI'm ovulating on CD13-14 and my follicle size seems finewe've been trying to conceive for over two years. My husband's report shows a 56 million sperm count with a motility rate of 65%, but the liquefaction time is more than two hours. Could that be causing us issues in getting pregnant?

Gynaecologist opinion is advised.
