Patient's question:
Hello, I would like to ask how high the sperm vitality value needs to be to be considered normal? My partner and I have been trying to have another baby, so we both went to the hospital for check-ups. My partner is fine, but the test revealed that my sperm vitality is low and requires treatment for a period of time, otherwise it may lead to infertility. Could you please tell me what the normal sperm vitality value is?Doctor's answer:
Hello, a normal sperm vitality rate is generally between 60% and 70%. If the sperm vitality rate is below this value, it is considered 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 rate is below 50%, it is abnormal and is referred to as low sperm motility, also known as asthenozoospermia. If sperm have completely no motility, it is called necrospermia. Low sperm motility and necrospermia are one of the important causes of male infertility. It is recommended that you seek treatment at a formal hospital, strictly follow medical advice, actively cooperate with the doctor, and avoid missing the best opportunity for treatment.
