[|Human|] my husband and i are trying to conceive and we had him do a semen analysis. Results showed normal sperm count, but motility was 40% rapidly progressive, 30% not moving at all, and the remainder were moving but either slow or in the wrong direction. does this mean we won t be able to conceive naturally?
[|AI|]  Hi, I understand your concern.  Yes, motility of sperms does affect conception.  For conception, sperms have to travel all along uterus to meet mature ovum(on its way from peritoneal cavity to uterus) within 32-3 days of its release from ovum. So for sperms with less motility can not do it & conception becomes difficult.  But 30% sperms having grade 3 to 4 movements are sufficient for conception. Your husband seems to have a sufficient motility & should not hamper the task. You can conceive naturally. You can recheck it with his doctor.  Fewer sperm motility can be corrected by medicines/ surgery (for Varicocele) or GUI/IVF, Thanks.
