Patient's question:
I feel very uncomfortable in my private area, and that feeling cannot be described. It affects my work and life very much, and it's quite annoying. How should I treat semen not liquefying? This situation has recently appeared, and it's not improving much. I'm quite worried.Doctor's answer:
Ejaculate failure to liquefy is commonly caused by conditions such as seminal vesiculitis and prostatitis, which lead to insufficient secretion of fibrinolytic enzymes from the prostate; deficiencies in trace elements (such as magnesium, zinc, etc.); or congenital absence of the prostate. It is generally believed that the secretions from the prostate and seminal vesicles contribute to the coagulation and liquefaction processes of semen. The coagulation factor produced by the seminal vesicles causes semen to coagulate, while the liquefaction factors produced by the prostate, such as protease and fibrinolytic enzymes, cause semen to liquefy. Once the seminal vesicles or prostate develop inflammation again, it can disrupt the secretion of these factors, leading to an accumulation of coagulation factors or an increase in liquefaction factors, resulting in semen liquefaction disorder.
