hi, ve been trying to get my wife pregnant for over seven years. she got pregnant initially but she has miscarriage later after that its been difficult conceiving again. i went to see a doctor and i went thro various lab screening and it was detected that i ve low sperm count . I was given Vitamin C 500mg, Addyzoa and Vitmin E 400mg. My sperm count at the moment is about 31million, is it possible my wife wil get pregnant very soon. she has been diagnosed and she is ok medically just that they gave her clomid to induce ovulation .
Hello, Welcome to Chat Doctor, I am Chat Doctor For pregnancy you do not need too much sperm count. Along with sperm count, most important is sperm motility and sperm morphology. According to WHO 1999, requirement of sperm count is >20 millions / ml, requirement of sperm motility is >50%, and minimum 60% sperms should be of normal morphology.  To fertilize an ovum, a sperm has to go up to the fallopian tube. If motility is lower than required, then the sperms are unable to fertilize an ovum in spite of having normal sperm count.  So, for pregnancy you need 50% sperm motility and 60% normal sperm.  From the above discussion it is clear that no definite comment can be done regarding pregnancy on the basis of only 31 million sperm.
