Patient's question:
Hello doctor, I would like to ask what causes semen to be viscous? The semen appears viscous and granular. My daughter is two years old, and my partner and I have not taken any contraceptive measures, but my partner has not become pregnant. Our sexual function is normal, and our general health is also normal. I suspect that I am unable to have a second child because of this. What are the causes of viscous semen?Doctor's answer:
Hello, regarding the question of what causes semen to be viscous, your condition is considered semen nonliquefaction. The normal state of male sperm and semen is that it liquefies on its own, becoming milky white and translucent like a jelly. If the semen is like jelly, it means it is not liquefying. Nonliquefaction of male semen indicates the presence of inflammation in the reproductive system, primarily caused by prostatitis and seminal vesiculitis. It is recommended that you go to the hospital for a clear examination to identify the condition and then receive targeted treatment. The above is the answer to the question of what causes semen to be viscous, and it is hoped that it will be helpful to you.
