We have been trying for a while and my husbands report came with a slightly low number which has got us both tensed. Im trying to understand how much is actually needed for things to work. Anyone with similar experience pls share.
We had the same question when we started trying. Technically one is enough but the numbers and quality matter for the chance. My husband did a basic test and the doctor explained it all. Maybe consider that if ur planning.
It only takes one sperm to fertilize the egg, but a healthy count and good motility improves the chances overall. If ur trying for a while without luck, a simple semen analysis tells the picture. A doctor can guide from there.
We learnt during our journey that count is just one part, motility and shape matter too. Please dont blame anyone or stress, these things are checkable and treatable. A fertility doctor explains it clearly and kindly. Wishing u the best.
Just one needs to reach the egg, but a normal healthy count raises the odds. If ur worried, the easiest step is a semen analysis at a lab, simple test. Then let the doctor interpret it.
