Only one sperm is needed to produce a baby, but when diagnosing male infertility, the rule of thumb is that the man must produce at least 2ml of fluid, with 20 million sperm per ml (so 40 million in a sample), half of which must be motile and correctly formed. If he meets all of this criteria, he is considered fertile.

This is tested after 3 days of no sexual activity.
