Many people believe that "one drop of essence, ten drops of blood". Some people even think that semen can nourish the face and cure diseases. In fact, this is a fallacy due to lack of sexual health knowledge. Although the amount of semen is related to the health of men, the two cannot draw an equal sign, let alone the quality of semen to measure the quality of sexual function. Sexual function is affected by many factors such as age, hormone level, physical strength and mental state.
In normal male semen, seminal plasma accounts for more than 95% and sperm accounts for 1%. The main component of seminal plasma is water, accounting for more than 90%. Other components include fat, protein particles and inorganic salts, which are similar to plasma components. Mature sperm is usually stored in the seminal vesicle and epididymis tube. Even if it is not discharged from the body, it will naturally age, die, and finally be digested by enzymes. Therefore, there is no saying that "losing sperm damages vitality", let alone high nutrients or good medicine.
Most men know some simple self-testing methods to observe the characteristics of semen. Normal semen is weakly alkaline, has a special fishy smell, is gray or milky white, and contains gray white clots; After being discharged from the body for about 10-20 minutes, the clot will liquefy and become translucent and turbid thin mucus. If people who have been abstinence for a long time, their semen is light yellow and sticky; If bright red or dark red appears, it may indicate inflammation or reproductive tract damage. Sometimes couples live apart for a period of time, and have frequent and intense sex after getting together. The pressure of seminal vesicles drops to the minimum in a short time, and dark red semen will also appear.
Normal men ejaculate 2~6 ml of semen each time. Frequent masturbation or sexual life may lead to less and thinner semen volume during ejaculation. There are also too few semen, which may be caused by abnormal testicular function, endocrine disorder, seminal vesicle prostate disease or urethral stricture. You should go to see a doctor and receive treatment. Excessive sperm excretion, such as more than 7 ml, is also a pathological condition, mostly caused by seminal vesicle inflammation.
