Patient's question:
Doctor, I am currently in puberty and don't understand some things, but Chinese parents are generally reluctant to talk about sexual matters. I want to ask what is retrograde ejaculation? Just asking, there's nothing else in mind, really.Doctor's answer:
There is an orgasm in sexual life but no ejaculation. On the contrary, after masturbation, there is semen in the urine. It can also be said that semen flows backward into the bladder. Retrograde ejaculation is different from non-ejaculation and azoospermia. It can be directly identified as due to the inability of the bladder neck to close or excessive resistance of the membranous urethra. Retrograde ejaculation refers to the condition where the bladder is closed before normal ejaculation in a healthy male, but in patients with retrograde ejaculation, the situation is exactly the opposite because their bladder does not close during ejaculation, making it easy for seminal fluid to flow backward into the bladder. Retrograde ejaculation can lead to consequences such as infertility in women, so male friends should pay attention.
