  5. I'm really confused and concerned about my semen analysis results from a couple of days ago. The report showed a count of 8 million per ml and motility at 45%. This morning, I tried a home test by adding semen to water, and I noticed that about 90% of it sank. Could you explain what it means when semen sinks or floats? I'm really curious and worried.

Thank you for your query. Typically, semen that sinks in water may indicate lower sperm motility or vitality, as healthy sperm are more likely to float. However, it's important to consider that a home test may not provide an accurate representation of sperm health. I recommend discussing these results with a healthcare provider for further analysis and guidance.
