A student asks the instructor what are the parameters of infertility. The instructor responds, "Infertility is defined as"
A)
100 million of sperm in ejaculate.
B)
50% of sperm has good motility.
C)
morphology that appears normal.
D)
10 million/mL sperm available in seminal fluid.
Ans:
D
Feedback:
The sperm count in a normal ejaculate is approximately 100 to 400 million. Infertility may occur when insufficient numbers of motile, healthy sperm are present. A "fertile sample" on seminal fluid analysis is associated with a count greater than 20 million/mL, greater than 50% motility, normal morphology, and a volume of 1.5 to 6 mL.
