Facts

  • A normal sperm count is 20 million or more sperm per milliliter of semen.
  • In reality, a low sperm count is the most common reason for male infertility.
  • The sperm count is determined by measuring the number of active sperm present in a milliliter (less than a teaspoon) of semen (the fluid ejected from the penis during intercourse).
  • If the sperm count is high, chances for conception are bigger.
  • Sperm count below 20 million sperm per testicle is low and may be the cause of fertility problem.
