Your sperm concentration, total count and semen volume are all within the normal range, so conceiving naturally is quite possible. Progressive motility and morphology are a little below the usual cut-offs, which can lower the odds somewhat but doesn't mean you can't father a child.
Next Steps
Cut down smoking, alcohol and heat exposure such as hot baths, saunas or resting a laptop on your lap, since these affect motility and morphology. Repeating the test after 2 to 3 months often shows a change, since sperm quality varies over time.
Health Tips
If you and your partner have been trying for over a year, please see a fertility specialist together for a full evaluation of both of you.
