Patient's question:
What is the condition of semen that does not liquefy? Will it cause infertility? Are there any ways to solve this? It has been troubling me for a long time, and it's making me feel uncomfortable. I'm looking for a solution.Doctor's answer:
Hello, after normal semen is ejected outside the body, under the effect of coagulating enzymes excreted by the seminal vesicles, it becomes thick and jelly-like. Between 10 to 20 minutes after ejaculation, it is thinned out due to the effect of fibrinolytic enzymes excreted by the prostate.Vaporization time: less than 30 minutes.
Vaporization abnormality refers to the phenomenon where semen cannot be completely vaporized at least 30 minutes after ejaculation or begins to vaporize within an hour. It includes conditions such as non-liquefaction of semen and delayed vaporization of semen, which are commonly referred to as non-liquefaction of semen.
Common causes of non-liquefaction of semen include seminal vesiculitis and prostatitis, leading to insufficient fibrinolytic enzymes excreted by the prostate; deficiency of trace elements (such as magnesium, zinc, etc.); congenital absence of the prostate, and other factors.
