Ejaculate turns transparent, what's the situation?

Patient's question:

Frequent masturbation
Recently discovered that the semen has become transparent like water, with a sticky texture, not the normal creamy white color

Doctor's answer:

In your case, it may be caused by kidney deficiency. Oral medications such as Shiquan Dabu (Ten-Complete Tonifying Pills) and others can be used for treatment. It's recommended to consume more foods rich in melanin, such as black beans, black rice, black sesame seeds, walnuts, and black fungus. You can also steep some insect fruit grass (Chong Shen Cao) to drink, as this traditional Chinese herbal medicine helps to nourish essence, replenish the kidneys, and address kidney qi deficiency.
As everyone knows, male dysfunction can cause significant harm to men, so it's important to seek treatment as soon as possible. Pay attention to dietary issues in daily life, avoid foods, and maintain a balanced diet. Additionally, regular follow-up visits may be necessary when needed.
