Patient's question:
I recently don't know what's going on, my lower body is very uncomfortable, and I'm not getting morning erections anymore. What does it mean if the semen is light yellow?Doctor's answer:
Normal semen freshly emitted is viscous, milky white, and contains grayish-white clumps. Approximately 10 to 20 minutes later, the clumps liquefy on their own, turning into a translucent, cloudy, thin viscous fluid. The odor of semen is produced by arginine secreted by the prostate and has a unique fishy smell. If the semen appears yellow, it may indicate inflammation such as prostatitis or the presence of urine in the semen. Certain antibiotics and frequent sexual activity can make the semen more transparent, while longer intervals between sexual activity result in yellower semen.We recommend that you visit our hospital for relevant examinations to confirm the diagnosis. If everything is normal, you can conceive. If there is an inflammation or infection, prompt treatment should be administered.
