THE RESULTS ARE (FINALLY) IN!

The doctor wrote "EXCELLENT!" across the bottom, so I guess that is the part I'm supposed to understand!

Here is the breakdown (in case you really, really care! )
pH: 8.5 (Normal range 6.4-8.0)
Count: 97.9ml (Normal range is more than 20ml)
Motility: 85% (Normal is more than 50%)
Morphology: Normal 26; Normal Strict Criteria more than 14%

To me it looks as if the pH is a bit too high. They did not note this as any concern, but I am obsessive so of course I am now trying to read up on that! From what I read, abnormally high pH can kill sperm or affect their ability to reach the egg...
I guess when we go to the RE we will learn if he thinks this is an actual concern.
