What are the criteria for judging the health of male semen? Whether semen is healthy depends on these 10 points

Semen refers to the liquid ejected from the urethra when a man ejaculates (usually in the state of orgasm). Normal semen is a viscous liquid mixture composed of sperm and seminal plasma. Sperm is produced by the testis, matured in the testis and exported through the vas deferens. Seminal plasma is mainly the mixed fluid secreted by prostate, seminal vesicle gland, bulbar urethral gland and other accessory glands, including a small amount of spermary fluid, spermary fluid, etc. At ordinary times, the components of sperm and seminal plasma are in their respective positions, and sperm and seminal plasma are mixed to form semen during excretion.

The quality of semen is related to the health of children in the future. Men want to have healthy babies, so the quality of semen must be strictly checked. After careful observation, we can find that the male semen is yellow, the male semen is milky white, the male semen is green, and the male semen has a healthy benchmark. I hope you can compare it.

1. Semen volume: normal ≥ 2ml. If it is more than 7ml, it is too much, not only the sperm density is reduced, but also it is easy to flow out of the vagina, so that the total number of sperm is reduced, which is common in seminal vesiculitis; Less than 2ml is too little semen, but usually less than 1ml is too little. At this time, the contact area between the semen and the female genital tract is small, or because the viscosity is not conducive to the sperm entering the female cervix, resulting in infertility, which is common in severe paragonadal inflammation, low testosterone level, ejaculatory duct obstruction, retrograde ejaculation, etc.

2. Color: normally gray white or slightly yellow. Milky white or yellow-green color indicates inflammation of the genital tract or accessory gonads; Pink, red, and red blood cells seen under the microscope are bloody semen, which is common in inflammation of accessory gonads and posterior urethra, and occasionally in tuberculosis or tumor.

3. PH: The normal pH of semen is 7.2-7.8. Less than 72 can be seen in ejaculatory duct obstruction or urine contamination; More than 7.8 can be seen in seminal vesicle inflammation or obsolete specimens.

4. Liquefaction time: after normal semen injection, it becomes frozen under the action of seminal vesicle coagulase, and becomes liquid under the action of prostate liquefying enzyme within 15-30 minutes, which is semen liquefaction. It is abnormal that semen does not liquefy half an hour after ejaculation.

5. Viscosity: contact the glass rod with the liquefied semen and gently lift it to form semen silk, which is less than 2cm in normal length.

6. Sperm count: generally expressed by the number of sperm per milliliter of semen. Normal count ≥ 20 × 106/ml。 Below this value, there are too few sperm. Due to various reasons such as sperm dysfunction, the chances of sperm entering the uterine cavity and fallopian tube are reduced, and the fertility is decreased or infertility. Sperm count exceeds 250 × If 106/ml sperm is too much, the activity will be affected, which will also lead to infertility.
