As an important pillar of modern society, men's health has always been the focus of our attention. However, with the development of society, people's requirements for their own life and work are gradually increasing, and more and more people are in sub-health, especially men. Therefore, more and more men are infertile, and there are many men with yellow semen. Why does a man's semen turn yellow?
Why does male semen turn yellow?
The normal color of semen in normal people should be milky white or slightly yellow. The yellowing of semen indicates that the male is not healthy. The color of semen is determined by the composition of semen, which is composed of sperm and seminal plasma. Sperm volume only accounts for a small part, and more than 90% is seminal plasma. The seminal plasma is secreted by accessory gonads such as prostate, seminal vesicle, bulbous urethral gland, paraurethral gland, etc. The main components are water, fat, protein particles, pigment particles, lecithin bodies, enzymes, fructose, etc.
What is the reason for the yellowing of male semen? The yellowing of semen is generally caused by the yellowing of normal semen and pathological semen.
Reasons for yellowing of normal semen
The abnormal yellowing of semen is accidental, not pathological, and cannot be treated by medical treatment, because the possibility of not ejaculating for a long time is high. If you do not ejaculate for a long time, the semen will be stored in the body for a long time, and slowly the semen itself will deteriorate, and the color of the semen will turn yellow, but this situation is relatively short, and will disappear with the development of sexual life.
Causes of pathological semen yellowing
If the abnormal yellowing of semen lasts for a long time, it indicates that there are prostatitis, seminal vesiculitis and other inflammation in the male reproductive tract. These inflammation will lead to semen activity, and delayed diagnosis will affect semen quality, and will also lead to infertility. Prostate fluid secreted by the prostate is an important component of semen. If the prostate is infected by inflammation, it will directly affect the quality of semen.
How to prevent yellowing of semen?
In the acute phase, semen examination and prostate and seminal vesicle massage are prohibited.
Abstinence. Avoid sexual impulse, temporarily interrupt sexual life, especially unclean sexual intercourse.
Pay attention to genital hygiene, and circumcision should be performed for those who have too long foreskin.
In the chronic period, hot water sitz bath (not suitable for the childless) or Chinese medicine sitz bath can be used.
Light diet, avoid spicy and stimulating products of tobacco and alcohol.
Pay attention to the combination of work and rest, avoid sitting for a long time, prohibit cycling and horseback riding, and reduce the pressure on the perineum.
