Patient's question:
7 years ago, I was infected with mycoplasma and chlamydia. Now, I'm still under immense psychological pressure. Back then, I didn't want to, and I didn't understand anything at all—I ended up taking friends along.The day before yesterday, after my penis became soft after an erection, I went to urinate and examined the urethral opening with my hand. I found mucus that could be stretched into threads... Could I have non-gonococcal urethritis? Or could it be secretions from the Cowper's glands? I don't have any urethral itching, burning sensation, or pain when urinating. After reading a lot of non-gonococcal urethritis information, I developed fear. I heard that there can be a "sticky" or secretion phenomenon at the urethral opening before urinating after waking up in the morning, but I only slept for 6
Doctor's answer:
The periurethral glands and the prostate secrete colorless and transparent fluid, which serves a lubricating and moisturizing function. If there are no other discomforts, there is no need to worry. This is a normal phenomenon.
