Patient's question:
Can normal semen contain unliquefied jelly-like particles?Doctor's answer:
Normal semen is in a liquid state but immediately coagulates into a gel-like consistency. It liquefies into a watery liquid within about 10-20 minutes. This process is known as semen liquefaction and is a normal physiological phenomenon. If semen remains in a gel-like state for more than 30 minutes after being expelled from the body, it is considered a pathological condition, known as semen non-liquefaction. As most people are aware, male infertility can cause significant harm to men, so it is important to seek treatment as soon as possible. In daily life, attention should be paid to dietary issues, with a focus on a light diet and avoiding foods. Additionally, regular follow-up visits may be necessary when needed.
