Hi,
Your husband's total sperm count is less but still we need to calculate the semen volume which will be (sperm count*volume*motility). The normal count is over 20 million and around 10 million is needed to go for an an IVF . The mortality is not very high(in the sense of unable to see you pregnant)
However there are many causes for low sperm count which at times can be easily treatable like a strong infection in your body. He might be taking some over the counter drugs specially some antifungal,herbal medicines(about which you will have to tell in detail)
There are some other causes such as retrograde ejaculation or hormonal imbalances which are also treatable,but the cause needs to be found out first so he should be investigated for to look for the cause.
You may consult a urologist in this case.
Feel free to ask more questions
