Ejaculation in men during arousal is a natural physiological response of the body. Usually, it is transparent, does not have a sharp smell, is quite thick and sticky. The amount of liquid depends on the characteristics of the human reproductive system and can vary from a few points to 4-5 mg.
Partners who are not planning pregnancy should know that mucus contains active spermatozoa. Therefore, protective equipment must be used even during sexual intercourse.
Common secret clear color, no unusual taste. The texture is medium density. There are no impurities in the secretion.
The natural secretion that appears during intimacy is called semen. It consists of gametes and mucus from the penis. It has a thick texture and whitish color. Exit from the penis after sexual discharge.
What is considered normal
After a night's sleep or during arousal, a small amount of clear mucus is secreted on the head of the male penis, which in medicine is called libidinal urethrorrhea. The function of this lubricant includes several important tasks. So, it facilitates the gliding of the penis when entering the vagina during sex. Another useful property of this viscous liquid is the ability to neutralize the acidic environment that is harmful to spermatozoa. With the help of pre-ejaculatory release, nature has ensured that uric acid residues are washed from the walls of the male and female urethra. And during sexual intercourse, natural mucus acts as protection for the seed from the aggressive environment of the vagina.
The transparent lubricant composition also includes smegma. This is the name of a fat-like substance secreted from the foreskin gland. Its main function is to ensure the safe exit of the glans penis from the folds of the preputial sac during stimulation. However, if this useful mucus is not removed in time, it mixes with the dead epithelium and becomes a habitat for various pathogens. Therefore, representatives of the stronger sex at any age must carefully perform hygiene procedures, change underwear every day, use condoms during casual sex.
What else should a man do to keep libidinous urethrorrhea as a very healthy fluid? To do this, you need to eat properly, eliminate alcohol, fast food, fatty, salty, smoked dishes from the diet. It is also necessary to exercise regularly to activate all metabolic processes and see a doctor if the color, smell or consistency of the lubricant changes. Every man should avoid promiscuous sex, but also make sure that there is no long period of abstinence in his life.
When to Worry
Any change in the characteristics of the mucus released during stimulation should alert the man and be a reason to contact a specialist. Often, it is thanks to unusual secretions that dangerous diseases of the reproductive, reproductive and excretory systems can be detected at an early stage. You should see a doctor immediately if there is no fluid at all or if the discharge becomes greenish with a strong musty smell. Another negative factor in the deviation from the norm is the appearance of blood impurities and curd-like sediment in clear mucus.
Why does discharge turn gray-green when excited? So the body can respond to the development of the inflammatory process in the pelvic area. The following symptoms can confirm this diagnosis:
- Increased body temperature.
- Pain in the stomach.
- Swelling of the skin.
- Discharge of purulent fluid from the urethra without pleasure.
Viscous transparent discharge sometimes indicates infection with infectious diseases: staphylococcus aureus, streptococcus, Escherichia coli. Moreover, they can stand out in men not only in moments of pleasure, but also in a calm state of the body. Associated symptoms are:
- Itching on the genitals.
- Hyperemia in the penis.
- Redness on the external genitalia.
- Swelling in the legs.
The same pathological process in the body of a man during stimulation and during the rest period is observed when infected with sexually transmitted diseases. How much the composition of the discharge has deviated from the norm can be known using a pre-ejaculation diagnostic examination.
Consulting a doctor immediately is necessary for men who, at the time of passion, emit lubricant with curdled white spots. Therefore, candidiasis is indicated - a fungal disease, the causative agent of which is Candida milk fungus. This microorganism is usually part of the human microflora, but with a decrease in immunity, it begins to multiply intensively, leaving a white cheesy coating on the penis and in the liquid released during stimulation.
Probability of conception
Many couples are interested in whether the conception process is possible with interrupted intercourse, that is, are there enough sperm in the mucus for successful fertilization? Experts do not exclude the possibility of pregnancy from the clear fluid released during stimulation. After all, it is impossible to calculate exactly how many germ cells will come out with pre-ejaculation. So, the more active the spermatozoa in a man's sperm, the greater their number will be in the libidinal urethra.
What factors increase the likelihood of conception? First of all - the day of ovulation of a woman. If intercourse interruptus occurs at a time when the cervical canal of the uterus is open, and the egg has matured and left the follicle, even one spermatozoon, released along with the clear mucus, can perform fertilization. It should be explained that this process is not common, and such cases are described very rarely.
Another factor that increases the likelihood of pregnancy is repeated sexual intercourse. Therefore, drops of sperm always remain in the male urethra, and during the next intimacy they are released along with the mucus. To reduce this possibility, a man should only empty his bladder between sexual intercourses. The acidic fluid of the urine will neutralize any remaining semen, and the subsequent emission, when aroused, will again be almost harmless.
Remember that any type of abortion is very dangerous to the female body. Therefore, if pregnancy is not included in your plan, take contraceptives or use all kinds of protection methods (condoms, coils, vaginal covers). And if the composition of the mucus released during stimulation is far from normal, that is, it has an unusual texture, smell, blood spots or curds, then there is a high risk of infecting the partner with an infectious or fungal disease.
Excretion during stimulation is a natural process that helps keep spermatozoa active. The color, volume, smell and consistency of the fluid can tell a lot about a man's health. It is a visual deviation from the norm that can be a reason to see a doctor and identify the disease at an early stage, while other symptoms have not yet fully manifested. Therefore, all representatives of the stronger sex should not only take care of the hygiene of the external genital organs carefully, but also to observe all the changes in the secreted fluid over time.
When asked why wear a condom when interrupting sexual intercourse, the expert answered that the composition of the mucus includes spermatozoa, and it can cause unplanned conception. To prevent this from happening, you need to take care of protection, especially during the beginning of the ovulation period.
