im confused on my SA result
Volume : 0.003L >>i dont know how many ml is that.
Color : Pearly White >> i dont know what is the normal Color
Viscosity : Semi-Viscous >> What is Viscosity?
pH : 9.0 >> i think the normal is 7.0 - 8.0
Motility : 0.85 >> how many % is that?
Count : 126.80 x 10 9/L >> i dont know how many millions is that
Sperm Abnormal Morphology
Small head 0.01
Bilobed hhead 0.02
enlarged head 0.04
multiple tail 0.03
no tail 0.02
white cells 3-10 /HPF
red cells 1-3 /HPF
That looks like a weird way to write it thats all. Most of it I don't understand either.
0.003L is 3mls which is a normal volume.
Pearly white that sounds normal to me also.
Not sure about the abnormal sperm. My husband had 81% abnormal shaped sperm (flat heads, square heads etc) so 21% normal shaped and they said his sperm was fine.
Did you get the reference guide underneath the results? Often it has the normal range there so you could see if your results are within normal range.
Did it say how much was normal or just the abnormal ones?
As the PP said, the volume is 3 ml (multiply the number of litres by 1000).
Viscosity is the thickness of the liquid (eg honey is viscous and water is not). I'm not sure what the optimum viscosity is though.
I'm guessing the 0.85 for motility means 85% (assuming it's on a scale of 0-1 -> just multiply the number by 100).
The count is 126,800,000,000 per litre, which is 126.8 million per ml.
Assuming the abnormal morphology numbers are percentages again, that would be 12% abnormal which is probably very good, but depends on the grading system they use.
I'm not sure about the colour or pH, sorry.
