Patient's question:
Hello, I would like to ask what level of sperm motility is considered normal? My partner and I have been wanting to have another baby, so we both went to the hospital for check-ups. My partner is fine, but the test results showed that my sperm motility is low and requires treatment for a period of time, otherwise it may lead to infertility. I would like to ask what level of sperm motility is considered normal?Doctor's answer:
Generally, a sperm vitality rate of 60%-70% is considered normal. If the sperm vitality rate is below this value, it is classified as low sperm vitality. What is a normal sperm vitality rate? Within 1 hour after ejaculation, the proportion of motile sperm should be above 70%. If the motile sperm count is below 50%, it is considered abnormal and is referred to as low sperm motility, also known as asthenozoospermia. If sperm have completely no motility, it is termed necrospermia. Low sperm motility and necrospermia are one of the important causes of male infertility. It is recommended that you seek treatment at a reputable hospital, strictly follow medical advice, actively cooperate with the doctor, and avoid missing the best opportunity for treatment.
