My husbands semen report showed low motility with many dead sperm and im trying to understand what this means for us. We really want to conceive. Has anyone been in a similar situation?
No, dead or non motile sperm cannot fertilise the egg. Only a living, moving sperm can reach and fertilise it. This is exactly what a semen analysis checks, the motility part.
Biologically a dead sperm cant fertilise, that part is settled. If this is about fertility concerns, honestly the best step is a consult and test rather than internet theories. The doctor will explain what the report means.
Short answer, no, a dead sperm cant cause pregnancy, it needs to be alive and able to swim. If u are worried about sperm health, the proper way is a semen analysis. Dont go by myths floating around online.
