What is the white, viscous discharge from the glans in the morning?

Patient's question:

In the morning when I wake up and urinate, I noticed some white, thick liquid coming out from the urethral opening of the glans when I pulled back the foreskin. The first and second urinations of the morning were slightly yellow. What could be the reason for this? Could it be prostatitis?

Doctor's answer:

It is recommended that you undergo a routine urinalysis to check for the possibility of a urinary tract infection, and also pay attention to the possibility of prostatitis or benign prostatic hyperplasia. Frequent urination can be divided into physiological and pathological categories. The former can be caused by excessive fluid intake, cold, mental stress, etc. The latter can be caused by urinary system diseases and neurogenic diseases, such as bladder diseases, diabetes, diabetes insipidus, etc. In daily life, it is advisable to consume more nuts, such as walnuts, sunflower seeds, etc. Make reasonable arrangements for your rest and avoid fatigue, and do not stay up late frequently.
