Can men with low sperm count still get pregnant?

Patient's question:

Today the company went for a check-up and found that I have asthenozoospermia. Can asthenozoospermia still lead to pregnancy?

Doctor's answer:

In normal human semen, the sperm count is over 60 million per milliliter. If a semen analysis shows a sperm density higher than 20 million per milliliter on three or more occasions, it is referred to as oligospermia.
Causes of oligospermia include: varicocele, cryptorchidism, reproductive tract infections, autoimmune disorders, endocrine abnormalities, chromosomal abnormalities, elevated scrotal temperature, reflexive injuries, chemical and drug effects, orchitis, epididymitis, prostatitis, and seminal vesiculitis, among others.
