Question 1

My wife and I have been married for 2 years and have not been able to conceive. My semen report shows:
Volume: 2 ml
Sperm count: 85 million/ml
Active sperm: 60 percent
Sluggish sperm: 10 percent
Dead sperm: 30 percent
Are these results normal? My wife tests are all normal. We have tried many times without success. Please suggest what we should do next?

Question 2

Hi Doctor, I took Saw Palmetto and Beta Sitosterol 500 mg to reduce my DHT. Since then, I have been experiencing sexual problems. I consulted a urologist who found my testicles are slightly small in size and volume by USG and Doppler. My testosterone level is 3.38 ng/ml. SHBG and diabetes levels are normal. I do not have anxiety. I can get an erection during masturbation, but the problem is that my testicles are small, I have no libido, and I do not ejaculate properly, it is just one drop. I have been facing this problem since I took Saw Palmetto. I stopped taking it, but the side effects are still the same. Should I go for hCG therapy or TRT? Whom should I consult, a urologist or an endocrinologist?

Question 3

Hello, I have had varicocele for many years and sometimes I thought of getting it corrected but I came to know about complications as well. I do not have pain or discomfort but it occurs only if I do intense workout, so I stopped that and started doing light workout. My main issue is reduced fertility as I do not feel as aroused as before varicocele. I do get nightfall once or twice in a week. Reduced fertility and mental disturbances bother me and I sometimes feel underconfident while speaking with someone. Please check my report and advise based on the report?

Hi, I would like to understand the results of my semen analysis report. I have attached the report for your review. Could you please explain what the findings mean? Thank you, and I will be waiting for your guidance.

Please upload your report for specific guidance. Parameters like sperm count, motility, morphology, and volume determine fertility. Rare non-motile sperm indicates poor fertility potential.
