Total Progressive Motile Sperm Count Calculator

Have your semen analysis report ready, then follow these steps:

1. Semen Volume: Enter the sample volume in millilitres (mL).

2. Sperm Concentration: Enter the concentration in millions per millilitre, rather than the total sperm count for the whole sample.

3. Progressive Motility — PR or a+b: Enter the percentage of sperm moving forward. If grades a and b are listed separately, add them together. For example, 15% + 20% = 35. Enter 35 without the percentage symbol.

4. Select “Calculate” to view your result in millions and the accompanying explanation.

​

Please use progressive motility, not total motility. If your report does not clearly identify progressive motility, ask your laboratory before entering a value.

The “Post-wash count” field is optional. Use it only if your fertility laboratory has provided the total number of progressively motile sperm after preparation for intrauterine insemination (IUI). Enter this count in millions, or leave the field blank if it is unavailable.

How Is the Result Calculated?

Semen volume × sperm concentration × progressive motility percentage ÷ 100.

For example: 3 mL × 20 million/mL × 40 ÷ 100 = 24 million progressively motile sperm.
