Patient's question:

What is the reason for yellow and thick sperm! What is the reason for yellow and thick sperm

Doctor's answer:

Long-term masturbation can lead to yellow semen. Additionally, yellow semen may also be caused by conditions such as prostatitis, seminal vesiculitis, or orchitis. I don't know if you already have children, but if not, you must urgently visit a hospital to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment. This is because yellow semen caused by inflammation can affect fertility.
I recommend that you undergo semen tests and routine prostatic fluid tests at a reputable urological hospital to determine the cause and receive targeted treatment. In daily life, you should avoid masturbation, drink more water, avoid overexertion, and refrain from consuming spicy or irritating foods. Also, quit smoking and drinking.
Wishing you a speedy recovery.
