Patient's question:
I have poor erection, so I checked the prostatic fluid. The results showed white blood cells 0-2, and 70% of spermatozoa. I read online that semen is produced by the prostate. Does this result affect the quality of semen?Doctor's answer:
Based on the careful examination of your prostatic fluid, there are no issues, and there are no signs of inflammation or other abnormalities. Prostatic fluid is a small part of semen. If there are problems with prostatic fluid, it can have an impact. Normal semen is composed of sperm and seminal plasma. Sperm is produced by the testes, while seminal plasma is a mixture of fluids secreted by accessory glands such as the prostate, seminal vesicles, and bulbourethral glands. It also includes trace amounts of testicular fluid and epididymal fluid.
