Patient's question:
Hello doctor, when I went to the hospital for a check-up, the doctor told me that my sperm abnormality number has exceeded the normal range. He said it's 40%, is that really high? I want to know what the normal range for sperm abnormality rate is approximately. What level of sperm abnormality rate can I reach to make my wife pregnant?Doctor's answer:
Analysis of the condition:According to the fifth edition of WHO's semen standards, as long as the abnormal sperm rate does not exceed 96%, it is considered normal. This means that as long as 4% of the sperm have normal morphology, it is considered normal.
Recommendations:
During the development and maturation of sperm, defects in the head or tail are inevitable. However, these defects do not necessarily affect fertility. It is recommended to avoid smoking, wear loose pants to maintain good heat dissipation of the scrotum, and reduce alcohol and cola consumption to lower the abnormal sperm rate.
