[|AI|]  HelloThanks for query. Based on the facts that you have posted you are married since 3.5 years and have not been able to impregnate your wife. Your semen analysis has revealed liquefaction time of your semen to be more than one hour. Consistency of semen immediately on ejaculation is thick and viscous hence the sperms are unable to move forward, However the semen ejaculated gradually gets liquefied by an enzyme called PSA which is produced by Prostate. This liquefied semen enables sperms to move forward in vagina and Uterine cavity towards Fallopian tubes for effective fertilization of female egg to result into pregnancy. In the majority of cases the cause for increase in liquefaction time is infection which needs to be eradicated. Taking antibiotics like Doxycycline twice daily for 4-6 weeks does help to reduce liquefaction time to normal level of 30 -40 minutes and there by in conception., Chat Doctor.
