Patient's question:
Reaching sexual climax, with ejaculation occurring, but no semen was observed being expelled from the urethral opening forward.Doctor's answer:
A man has normal sexual sensitivity, climax, and ejaculation during intercourse, but the semen does not the urethra into the vagina. Instead, its backward into his bladder. This phenomenon is called retrograde ejaculation. The main cause of retrograde ejaculation is dysfunction of the bladder's sphincter. Under normal circumstances, when ejaculation occurs, the bladder sphincter should contract simultaneously, closing the connection between the urethra and the bladder, forcing the semen to from the posterior urethra. When there is inflammation of the bladder or urethra, or after surgery on the prostate, bladder, or rectum, it may sometimes cause local nerve dysfunction, leading to the bladder sphincter not closing tightly or being unable to close, causing theed semen to flow backward into the bladder. Retrograde ejaculation does not affect sexual life, but it can cause infertility. It is recommended to visit our sexual function department to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment!
