What is the small dark gel-like substance in nocturnal emission fluid?

Patient's question:

Normal urination, occasional intercourse, semen vaporizes within minutes; if the interval is short, the semen is milky white; if the interval is more than a week, the semen is light yellow, more viscous, and sometimes contains a few translucent gel-like particles. A few days ago, there was nocturnal emission, and a small dark, dried gel-like particle reappeared in the semen, not blood, with a small amount of dark staining around the particle. What is that dark particle? What tests should be done at the hospital?

Doctor's answer:

Stagnation should be semen material. This condition should be considered as prostatitis or seminal vesiculitis. It is recommended to have a prostate ultrasound and a prostatic fluid examination at a public hospital's urology department for a definitive diagnosis. Drink plenty of water, maintain a light diet, pay attention to rest, avoid sexual intercourse, and avoid prolonged sitting. For patients with nocturnal emissions, timely treatment can reduce the incidence. If left untreated, it can affect overall health. Therefore, patients should seek timely medical treatment and pay close attention to self-care in daily life, avoiding spicy foods.
