Patient's question:
What is retrograde ejaculation? What are the symptoms of retrograde ejaculation?Doctor's answer:
Hello, under normal circumstances, during male sexual response climax ejaculation, semen is expelled from accessory reproductive organs into the prostatic urethra and moves forward through the membranous part of the urethra, exiting through the urethral orifice. If semen is backward into the bladder instead of being forward through the urethra, it is called retrograde ejaculation. The causes include: paralytic weakness of the bladder neck and increased resistance in the membranous part of the urethra. The clinical manifestations are: during sexual intercourse, there is a sensation and action of ejaculation, but the semen does not exit through the urethral orifice; after ejaculation, the urine expelled by the patient is cloudy and foamy; semen can be observed in urine tests. Based on your description, it is recommended that you carefully observe, consider your own situation, and actively seek medical attention at the urological department when necessary, and follow the doctor's advice for timely treatment. Wish you health.
