Patient's question:
Married for three years, no children, want to have a baby. Went to the hospital before the New Year for a semen analysis. The liquefaction was relatively slow, taking about nearly an hour to liquefy. The sperm motility and vitality were not a problem, and the density was also fine. So I want to ask, how is it best to treat non-liquefying semen?Doctor's answer:
Hello, after normal semen is expelled outside the body, under the action of coagulase secreted by the seminal vesicles, it becomes thick and jelly-like. Between 10 to 20 minutes after ejaculation, it liquefies due to the action of fibrinolysin secreted by the prostate, becoming relatively thin.Liquefaction time: less than 30 minutes.
Liquefaction abnormality refers to the phenomenon where semen fails to completely liquefy at least 30 minutes after ejaculation or does not begin to liquefy until more than one hour has passed. This includes incomplete liquefaction of semen and delayed liquefaction of semen, which are commonly referred to as incomplete liquefaction of semen.
It is recommended that you seek timely treatment at a formal infertility and sterility specialty hospital, follow the doctor's advice, and avoid missing the best opportunity for treatment.
