Patient's question:
I found that I have candidal vaginitis. I received intravenous fluids for seven consecutive days. Can my husband check his semen to see if he has inflammation?Doctor's answer:
Hello: Clinical significance of semen analysis: General semen analysis helps in the diagnosis of male reproductive capacity and reproductive system diseases.1. Color
Fresh red, pale red, dark red, or soy sauce-like color: Seen in tuberculosis, tumors, stones, and inflammation of the prostate and seminal vesicles. Yellow purulent or brown purulent: Seen in prostatitis and seminal vesiculitis. Rice-water-like: Seen in congenital absence of seminal vesicles or obstruction of the seminal fluid outflow duct.
2. Appearance
Thin semen with decreased viscosity indicates a low sperm count or azoospermia. Non-liquefying semen is seen in prostatitis.
3. Semen volume that is too small (less than 2 ml) or too large (more than 8 ml) is also unfavorable for fertility.
