Is a creamy yellow color normal in semen analysis?

Patient's question:

Semen check: Color is yellowish, Semen volume is 3ml. Sperm count is 60×, viscosity is high, survival rate is 40%, vitality is poor. WBC is low. In the previous test, the survival rate was 80%, and vitality was good. Is there anything abnormal?

Doctor's answer:

The normal color of semen is grayish-white or milky white. If a man has abstained from sex for a long time, his semen may appear pale yellow. If it appears bright red or dark red, it indicates inflammation or damage to the reproductive tract. Regarding whether it's normal for semen to turn yellow and liquefy, a conclusion can only be drawn after examination by a hospital. Sometimes the symptoms may disappear quickly, but if they persist, it's advisable to seek medical attention. The volume of semen expelled during ejaculation is typically 2 to 6 milliliters and is often influenced by the frequency and frequency of ejaculation. Fresh semen may have a thick, jelly-like consistency, and it should liquefy within one hour. If a small glass rod is inserted into the semen and then removed, the length of the semen strand formed should generally not exceed 2 centimeters; otherwise, it is considered abnormal. Eating more fresh vegetables and fruits while reducing the intake of greasy and spicy foods can help prevent internal dampness and external dampness, which in turn can prevent the confusion between clear and turbid semen and the liquefaction of semen.
