sperm pellets

Men sometimes notice that their semen is in the form of particles. Logically speaking, semen should be liquid, so why does it appear that there are particles? Is semen granules a symptom? What are the causes? I think men are very concerned about their own reproductive health care. Let’s take a look together.

What does semen in particles mean?

The particulate matter in semen is a type of sperm that does not liquefy. In the process of semen, sperm and epididymal cyst fluid account for about 10%, and the seminal vesicle fluid produced in the seminal vesicles and the semen produced by the prostate account for the other 90%, and these interactions produce semen.

The seminal vesicle gland fluid produced by the seminal vesicles will produce a substance that can promote the coagulation of semen. The main function is to prevent other harmful substances from damaging the sperm quality in the semen and protect male sperm.

The semen produced in the male prostate can promote the liquefaction of sperm. This substance is mainly some hydrolytic trypsin, and then promotes the vaporization of semen.

When the male prostate becomes diseased, it affects the metabolism and production of proteolytic enzymes in semen, which will cause sperm liquefaction problems.

Is it normal for semen to be granular at night?

Whether the semen is normal is not judged by the presence of particles in the semen, but mainly by the following aspects.

Normally, the sperm density of freshly ejaculated semen is 2-6ml, which is sticky, milky white, and has a grayish consistency. After about 10-20 minutes, the consistency vaporizes and turns into a transparent, turbid, thin mucus.

The smell of semen is caused by the arginine metabolized by the male prostate in the semen. It has a unique fishy smell, much like the smell of chestnut flowers.

The normal sperm survival rate should be above 70%, with grade A and slightly slower forward sperm B (grade A and B) >50% or grade A sperm >25%. The malformation rate is <30%, and the white blood cell count is <0-5.

The normal state of spermatorrhea is difficult to distinguish with the human eye. If there are other conditions, you need to go to the hospital for treatment.
