Total Motile Count

Meaning

Total Motile Count is a crucial quantitative parameter in semen analysis that represents the total number of progressively motile spermatozoa within the entire volume of an ejaculate. This metric is calculated by multiplying the semen volume, the sperm concentration, and the percentage of sperm exhibiting forward, linear movement. It serves as a highly reliable predictor of a man’s overall fertility potential and the likelihood of natural conception.
