[2025-10-02T02:05:08.256088] [PI reasoning] **Assessing sperm parameters**

I’m examining sperm motility's role in fertilization and how it compares to other factors like morphology. The WHO guidelines mention specific reference limits for semen volume, sperm concentration, motility, and morphology. It seems most sources, including textbooks, stress sperm motility as the key factor. I'll note that morphological defects can impact fertility too. To solidify my answer, I’m considering citing literature that supports motility as the best predictor for IVF success, like Villani 2022, but I'll need to verify that reference.
