There are particles in the semen

Male semen is a liquid that is discharged through the ejaculatory duct when the nerves are highly excited. Under normal circumstances, it is a milky white or grayish white viscous liquid. If the color is different, it may be a pathological factor. Of course, some people are curious about why there are particles in their semen, and whether it is caused by illness. In fact, it is not the case at all. The following introduces the specific content in this regard, let’s take a look.

The presence of a few particles in the semen may be caused by the coagulation of semen. This is a normal physiological phenomenon and does not require treatment.

The reason why semen solidifies into a jelly state is due to the coagulation protein secreted by the seminal vesicles. This factor should also be considered when semen has particles. The proteolytic enzyme and plasmin secreted by the prostate in semen can break down coagulation protein and promote the liquefaction of semen. Therefore, the failure of semen to liquefy is due to an increase in coagulation protein or a decrease in proteolytic enzyme and plasmin.

During semen analysis, if the semen cannot coagulate, it may be caused by a defect in the ejaculatory duct or a congenital lack of the seminal vesicles.

The presence of particles in semen is a precursor to semen liquefaction syndrome and one of the main symptoms. You should seek treatment as soon as possible.

Normal semen is in a liquefied state when it is ejaculated, but it immediately solidifies into a jelly or clot state, and liquefies into a watery liquid after about 10 to 20 minutes. This process is called semen liquefaction, which is a normal physiological phenomenon. If semen is discharged from the body and remains in a jelly state for more than 30 minutes, it is a pathological condition, which is called semen non-liquefaction.

The failure of semen to liquefy is caused by an increase in coagulation protein or a decrease in proteolytic enzymes and fibrinolytic enzymes. During semen analysis, if the semen is not coagulated, it may be caused by a defect in the ejaculatory duct or a congenital lack of the seminal vesicle.

Under the microscope, spermatozoa in semen that has not liquefied can be seen to aggregate and cannot move or only move slowly. The movement of spermatozoa in such semen in the female reproductive tract is obviously hindered, and spermatozoa cannot ascend into the cervical canal, uterine cavity and fallopian tube, and cannot meet the egg. Therefore, the woman cannot conceive, which directly affects normal fertility.
