Sperm is relatively viscous

The sperm is relatively sticky mainly means that the patient may have vaginitis or prostatitis, which will cause these secretions to cause the sperm to be sticky. The sperm will mainly be milky white in shape, and there will be grayish white mud lumps. It may cause the patient to experience soreness in the waist and legs, dizziness, headache, and pain in the groin and testicles. The patient needs to go to the hospital for examination and diagnosis first, and then choose the appropriate method of treatment.

Causes

Common causes of thick semen are insufficient fibrinolytic enzyme secretion by the prostate due to seminal vesiculitis and prostatitis; deficiency of trace elements (magnesium, zinc, etc.); congenital absence of the prostate, etc.

It is generally believed that the secretions of the prostate and seminal vesicles are involved in the coagulation and liquefaction process of semen. The coagulation factors produced by the seminal vesicles cause the semen to coagulate, while the semen liquefaction factors such as protease and fibrinolytic enzyme produced by the prostate cause the semen to liquefy. Once inflammation occurs in the seminal vesicle or prostate, the secretion of the above factors may be impaired, causing an increase in coagulation factors or a decrease in liquefaction factors, resulting in thick semen.

Clinical manifestations

Semen is viscous, milky white, and contains grayish white clots. It may be accompanied by symptoms such as fatigue, weakness in the waist and knees, dizziness, back pain, and pain in the lumbar, groin, and testicles.

examine

1. Procalcitonin (PCT) test

PCT examination reflects the activity of systemic inflammatory response.

2. Routine examination of semen and prostatic fluid

Semen and prostatic fluid examinations can diagnose a variety of male reproductive system diseases.

diagnosis

1. It is found during routine semen examination and there may be no obvious systemic symptoms.

2. It is often secondary to prostatitis and seminal vesiculitis, and clinical symptoms include frequent urination, urgency, white discharge from the urethral orifice, hematuria, impotence, premature ejaculation, and spermatorrhea.

3. Semen liquefaction test showed: no liquefaction in 60 minutes.

4. Prostatic fluid examination: positive.
